Crews cleaning up City streets following heavy snowfall
April 24, 2026 - 2:15pm
Following approximately 10 centimetres of snow accumulation, and with more in the forecast, a snow event has been declared. Contracted equipment and operators will be deployed to support City crews in maintaining safety and mobility on Saskatoon’s priority streets, including Circle Drive, Idylwyld Drive, 22nd Street, 8th Street and College Drive.
Work will continue day and night, with crews balancing immediate safety priorities with efficient use of resources to maintain driving conditions across the city.
Residents should expect difficult travel conditions, including reduced traction due to icy surfaces beneath the snow, as well as reduced visibility and drifting. Drivers are urged to slow down, allow extra travel time and avoid unnecessary travel if conditions worsen.
Given the recent amount of snow accumulation, the Civic Operations Centre snow management facility is nearing capacity. It remains open but could be closed on short notice. Due to muddy conditions, the Wanuskewin and Central Avenue snow disposal sites are currently closed.
Drivers are reminded to watch for blue and amber flashing lights and give snow removal equipment the space required to operate safely.
More information, including the City’s winter road maintenance service level, is available at saskatoon.ca/snow.
SUV collision with a Transit bus on Taylor Street overpass at Circle Drive
April 24, 2026 - 1:10pm
A Sport Utility Vehicle and a Saskatoon Transit bus collided around 8 a.m. on April 24, 2026 on the Taylor Street overpass at Circle Drive. Emergency responders attended and assessed one individual at the scene for minor injuries.
Weather and road conditions are believed to have been a factor. Saskatoon Transit will provide on-board video footage to the Saskatoon Police Service for its investigation. A separate internal investigation will be conducted to determine if there are measures needed to help prevent any future incidents.
A cost estimate of the damage to the bus is not immediately available.
Saskatoon Transit has a Critical Incident Response process with post incident support for the staff involved, including follow-up wellness checks.

Wanuskewin Road will be closed between Arthur Rose Avenue and Marquis Drive starting Monday, April 27 for the installation of a pipeline as part of the Biosolids Pipeline Corridor Project. As part of this work, the intersection of Wanuskewin Road and 71st Street will also be closed to southbound traffic. Detours will be in place guiding motorists around the area. This project is expected to take seven weeks to complete, weather permitting and barring any unforeseen circumstances.
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.
