The public is invited to a Come-and-Go information session tomorrow, October 8, where the vision for the College Corridor Plan will be shared with the community.

Saskatoon Field House 
October 8, 2025
4:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m.

The Corridor Planning Program is the City of Saskatoon's approach to guiding growth and development along the planned Link (rapid transit) routes, within the Corridor Growth Area. This work is grounded in long-term City policy, including the Official Community Plan (2020), Corridor Transformation Plan (2020) and the Growth Plan to Half a Million (2016), which aim for 15 per cent growth to occur in this area. The College Corridor Plan is the first plan in this initiative and work on the Nutana Corridor Plan will begin shortly.

Visit saskatoon.ca/corridor for more information on the College Corridor Plan and the process that developed it.
