News Releases

Saskatoon Light & Power will begin removing seasonal decorations starting January 15. Over the next few weeks, work will impact various roadways including:

• University Bridge – Tuesday, January 21 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., and from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.  
• 2^nd Avenue – Sunday, January 26, from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.

This will be a moving work zone and will impact traffic in both directions. Drivers are reminded to slow down in work zones and be respectful of workers.

The Decorative Lighting Program provides lit and unlit seasonal decorations on street light poles in many of Saskatoon’s major commercial areas over the winter season. The decorations provide a welcoming ambience, supporting the Winter City Strategy by providing more lighting to make the darker winter season more inviting and beautiful. While some are removed in January, the remainder of the decorations are turned off and removed after the spring equinox.

*This report includes road restrictions on Priority 1 (high traffic, high speed) streets only.
