Saskatoon Transit Route 10 detour starts October 26 as College Drive construction progresses
October 23, 2026 - 5:21pm
- Route 10: Detours via 14th Street and Preston Avenue
- Route 510: Temporary shuttle service between Cumberland Avenue and Place Riel via Cumberland Avenue, Osler Street, Wiggins Avenue, 14th Street and Preston Avenue
- Monday to Friday: 6 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.
Starting Monday, October 26, Saskatoon Transit will temporarily adjust Route 10 and implement Route 510 shuttle service as construction progresses along College Drive and Cumberland Avenue. During construction, Cumberland Avenue will not be accessible from College Drive, but pedestrian access along Cumberland Avenue and across College Drive will remain open.
Riders should anticipate delays during this work, as detours will be in place for approximately four to five weeks.
Transit service alerts and bus information are available on third-party apps like Transit and Google Maps Transit. Trip planning apps will not show temporary detours for routes affected by College Drive construction, so riders are encouraged to plan ahead.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us at transit.services@saskatoon.ca or 306.975.3100.

Update: Downtown water main project
October 23, 2026 - 4:31pm
- 5th Avenue and 25th Street: fully closed with the reopening anticipated on October 30.
- 6th Avenue and 25th Street: open to traffic, but with restrictions in place. One westbound lane is operating for traffic travelling from Spadina Crescent toward 6th Avenue, while the eastbound lane from 6th Avenue toward Spadina Crescent remains closed. The eastbound lane is anticipated to reopen on October 30.
The Downtown water main project on 25th Street continues to progress with the reopening of two more intersections this weekend.
3rd Avenue and 25th Street and 4th Avenue and 25th Street will fully reopen to traffic on Saturday, October 24, 2026, restoring more access through the area. 1st Avenue and 25th Street and 2nd Avenue and 25th Street are also open.
Ongoing intersection restrictions:
Access to businesses, residences and properties is being maintained wherever possible.
As intersections reopen, some lane restrictions may remain while crews complete restoration work. Final roadway resurfacing on 25th Street will take place following completion of the remaining construction work.
The final phase of the project will include a water main replacement on 25th Street between 6th Avenue and Spadina Crescent. This work is anticipated to be completed in 2027.
Saskatoon Transit may be affected by these detours. Transit service alerts and real-time bus information are available on third-party apps like Transit and Google Maps Transit on desktop.

Update: Cumberland Avenue Closure Monday, October 26
October 23, 2026 - 4:00pm
Cumberland Avenue will close between College Drive and Elliott Street beginning at 8:00 a.m. on Monday, October 26, for approximately four to five weeks. Two-way vehicle traffic (one lane each in east and west directions) will be maintained on College Drive through the Cumberland Avenue intersection during this closure. Pedestrians will also be able to cross College Drive at a temporary signalized crossing to be installed immediately east of the intersection.
The closure is required to relocate existing traffic signal poles throughout the intersection and install new curb along the north side of the road. This work is required to be complete to allow the north lanes to be open to traffic and will help prepare the College Drive for operations over the winter season, minimizing further closures in 2027.
