Harry Bailey Aquatic Centre reopening delayed
July 23, 2026 - 1:30pm
The reopening of Harry Bailey Aquatic Centre has been delayed and the facility will not open in fall 2026 as previously anticipated.
During inspection and testing of the pool, deficiencies were identified that must be corrected before the project can proceed to pool tiling and finishing. The contractor is addressing these issues. While a confirmed reopening date is not yet available, the City is currently projecting a winter opening.
“While we know this update is disappointing for residents and user groups who have been looking forward to the reopening of Harry Bailey Aquatic Centre, it is important that the remaining work be completed properly before the facility opens,” says Dan Willems, Director of Technical Services. “We appreciate the patience of clubs, user groups and the community as we work toward reopening the facility.”
When Harry Bailey Aquatic Centre reopens, it will continue to serve a range of community needs within the City’s aquatic system, including training, instruction, club programming, public swimming and other aquatic recreation opportunities. The work underway is part of a major renewal project that will modernize key aquatic and building systems, improve accessibility and help ensure Harry Bailey Aquatic Centre can continue serving the community for years to come.

Reminder: recycling depots are for residential use only
July 22, 2026 - 4:00pm
The City's recycling depots have recently been experiencing higher-than-normal volumes of material, resulting in some bins reaching capacity more quickly than anticipated. Administration is exploring options to address the increased demand at the depots.
Commercial businesses and organizations are reminded that the City’s recycling depots are for residential use only. All businesses and organizations in Saskatoon are required to separate and divert recyclable materials. Businesses are encouraged to access the Recycling Guide for Businesses and Organizations for more information on diversion options at saskatoon.ca/businessrecycling.
Residents can help maximize available depot capacity by flattening cardboard boxes and only dropping off accepted recyclable materials. Unaccepted materials and items left outside of the bins are considered illegal dumping and create additional cleanup challenges and costs. If a depot appears full, residents are encouraged to visit another location or return at a later time.
For more information about recycling depot locations and accepted materials, please visit saskatoon.ca/recyclingdepots.

Beginning the week of July 27, Wanuskewin Road will be fully closed north of 72nd Street for approximately three months as crews complete open-cut pipeline installation work on the Biosolids Pipeline Corridor Project.
During this phase of work, Wanuskewin Road will be closed in both directions at 72nd Street, and there will be no access through the work zone.

Northbound traffic on Wanuskewin Road will be detoured at Marquis Drive, while southbound traffic from Highway 11 will be required to use alternate routes to access the city.
Access to the new development area, including Kohut Avenue, Eidem Link and Shoquist Avenue, will remain available from the south using Wanuskewin Road up to 72nd Street.
Pedestrian and cyclist pathways north of Marquis Drive will remain closed throughout this phase of construction.
Drivers are encouraged to plan ahead, allow extra travel time and follow all posted detour signage while this important infrastructure work is completed. We thank residents and commuters for their patience.

University Bridge to remain closed to general traffic for near term
July 17, 2026 - 1:30pm
After discussions with emergency services and the Saskatchewan Health Authority, the decision to open the University Bridge to general traffic has been delayed temporarily to ensure that consistent emergency access to the hospitals and related services remains the priority. The current pedestrian access routes on the bridge will remain in place.
The Contractor has been making good progress, and the City will continue to work with them to complete Stage 1 work on College Drive from the bridge to Hospital Drive/University Drive. Opening the bridge to general traffic requires integration and coordination between the construction work on College Drive and the rehabilitation work of the arch on the bridge. Additional information on when general traffic will flow across the bridge will be shared as details are confirmed for both construction projects.
A reminder that the Royal University Hospital and Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital can still be accessed by patients and visitors. Stage 2 work from Hospital Drive to Cumberland Avenue has commenced on the north lanes of College Drive with one lane in each direction being accommodated on the south lanes.
The City thanks residents for their patience and understanding as these essential infrastructure projects continue and we ensure that public safety remains the priority.

Next phase of Downtown Water main Lining project begins the week of July 20
July 17, 2026 - 10:00am
Crews will begin excavating and rehabilitating the water main on 25th Street East between Spadina Crescent East and 1st Avenue North the week of July 20, as part of the next phase of the Downtown Water main lining project
This phase of work is expected to continue through mid-to-late October, weather permitting and subject to change due to unforeseen circumstances.
To reduce impacts, excavation crews will strive to maintain traffic flow along 25th Street where possible. However, temporary street and intersection closures will be required at various stages of the project, and detours will be in place.
Drivers are encouraged to plan ahead, follow posted signage and use caution when travelling through the work zone. Detours will be in place to guide motorists around the work zone.
Residents and businesses within the work zone will have limited road access during construction. Temporary No Parking signs will be posted at least 72 hours before any street closures and will provide the most up-to-date information on closure dates and times.
Work on 4th Avenue between 24th Street and 25th Street is also continuing. Watermain replacement and storm sewer installation remain underway and are expected to be completed by mid-August, weather permitting and barring unforeseen circumstances.

Overnight road resurfacing beginning on McOrmond Drive
July 17, 2026 - 9:00am
The City of Saskatoon would like to remind residents that overnight road resurfacing work will begin the week of July 20 on McOrmond Drive from Willowgrove Boulevard to Addison Road (northbound) and from Nelson Road to Kerr Road (southbound).
To help reduce overall impacts on motorists and traffic flow, crews will begin work each evening at 7 p.m., with the road reopening each morning at 7 a.m. throughout the duration of the project.
The work is expected to take approximately eight days, weather permitting and subject to change due to unforeseen circumstances. Residents in the area can expect increased noise and vibration while heavy equipment is in operation.
Road resurfacing involves removing the old, deteriorated asphalt and replacing it with a new layer of hot mix asphalt. This treatment is used when the asphalt surface has reached the end of its service life, while the road structure beneath remains in good condition.
Drivers are encouraged to slow down, follow all posted signage and use caution when travelling through the work zone. The public is also encouraged to watch for a project schedule graphic on the City's social media channels outlining the planned phases of construction.

River flow decreases; recreational activities can resume
July 16, 2026 - 3:27pm
As of today, the Water Security Agency advises flows on the South Saskatchewan River have decreased to levels of roughly 340 m³/s and they will continue to lower for the next few days. Recreational activities may resume, however such flow rates are still considered above the average flow rate and caution is always advised on the river.
On Friday, July 17, the City will reopen the public boat launch located in Kiwanis Park, north of the Broadway Bridge.
Additionally, the safety buoys, which were swept away by the strong current, will be reinstalled July 17 providing a visual safety reminder of the adjacent downstream weir.
Residents are reminded that Bylaw 4433 prohibits swimming in the South Saskatchewan River within city limits. The strong river current, a shifting riverbed and steep, slippery banks makes playing and swimming in the river extremely dangerous, even with normal water flows.

Memorial tree positive for DED, City saddened at necessary removal
July 16, 2026 - 10:30am
- Not storing, transporting, selling, purchasing or burning elm wood or branches at any time. These actions are illegal.
- Not pruning elm trees during the provincial pruning ban from April 1 to August 31. Pruning during this time attracts elm bark beetles, which can spread the disease to healthy trees.
- Disposing of all elm wood immediately at the City Landfill, where disposal is free.
Do not take elm wood to the Compost Depot or place it in your green bin.
Sadly, after testing positive for Dutch Elm Disease (DED), the City must take immediate action and remove one of the trees along the Memorial Avenue of Trees at Woodlawn Cemetery.
“This is a difficult thing to have to do and an action we have to take with a heavy heart,” says Director of Parks, Thai Hoang. “While any historic elm that must be removed is a loss, this hits a bit harder.”
The positive result came back earlier this week and according to the City’s DED rapid response plan, the elm must be immediately removed.
“The City has taken measures to protect these trees as much as is practical including inoculating trees against Dutch Elm Disease,” Hoang says. “However, that is not a fail-safe and because of the high likelihood of root grafting between trees, the disease easily spreads.”
The Memorial Avenue of Trees in Woodlawn cemetery was created at the urging of the Imperial Order of the Daughters of the Empire (IODE) to commemorate the men and women who had fallen during the First World War.
“It’s not simply a public memorial, but an intensely personal one -- none of these men was ever coming home,” says City Archivist Jeff O’Brien. “There would be no grave here in Saskatoon for people to stand at, no place to put flowers on, but you could have a tree in Woodlawn Cemetery -- growing in celebration of the specific person that had been lost.”
The tree that is being removed is in memory of, “The Officers of the Forever Scotland Camp.” While not dedicated to a specific soldier, sailor, nurse or airman, O’Brien says the memorial is just as important.
“The Memorial Avenue of Trees is unique in Canada, for the simple reason that it still exists,” O’Brien says. “There were at one time a number of these arboreal memorials in many cities such as Victoria, Montreal and Winnipeg, for example, but over the years, they’ve all been cut down.”
The Memorial Avenue of Trees is a National Historic Site. Parks Canada has been notified of the pending removal.
The Parks department will follow the direction of City Council in 1922 when it promised the IODE that it would replace the trees if necessary. This has been done as trees have previously died from drought or other issues.
Residents can take a few simple actions to help prevent the spread of DED by:

Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo celebrates birth of baby caribou
July 13, 2026 - 10:00am
The Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo is celebrating the birth of a baby caribou, an exciting addition that highlights the Zoo’s commitment to conservation, education and animal welfare.
The male calf was born on Thursday, June 25, 2026, to mother Mira. He weighed 9.4 kilograms at birth and has since grown to 12.8 kilograms. Mom and baby are currently receiving care behind the scenes while the Zoo’s Animal Care Specialists closely monitor their progress and support this important early bonding period. The pair are expected to begin exploring their habitat this week.
The calf has been named Lyall Petrie in honour of Dr. Lyall Petrie, who was a mentor and friend to hundreds of veterinary students at the Western College of Veterinary Medicine in large animal medicine. Dr. Petrie passed away on May 5, 2026.
“Our Animal Care Specialists are providing Mira and her calf with the time, space and support they need during these important early days,” said Jeff Mitchell, Zoo Manager, Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo. “It is especially meaningful to name this calf Lyall Petrie in honour of Dr. Petrie, whose guidance, generosity and dedication left a lasting mark on so many in the veterinary community.”
Visitors can expect to see Lyall gradually become more active, stay close to Mira and begin exploring the caribou habitat as the pair continue to settle in. Visibility may vary from day to day as our team continue to prioritize the health, comfort and routine of both animals.
Caribou, also known as reindeer, are the same species, Rangifer tarandus. Listed as Vulnerable, caribou face risks including habitat loss, human development and climate change. They are well adapted to cold climates, with a dense undercoat and longer hollow guard hairs for warmth. Their broad hooves help them move across snow and soft ground, and both males and females grow antlers.
The Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo is proud to support the Caribou Conservation Alliance. The birth of this calf helps raise awareness about the importance of protecting caribou and their habitats for future generations.
Plan your next visit and learn more about the Saskatoon Zoo animals, conservation work and programs at saskatoon.ca/zoo.

Severe thunderstorm clean-up underway
July 9, 2026 - 10:48am
A severe thunderstorm rolled over Saskatoon and area overnight July 8 and into the early morning of July 9. The storm downed tree limbs causing power outages, creating obstacles and debris in streets, alleys, parks and open areas.
City crews have been hard at work since the early hours of the morning to get Saskatoon moving around.
Saskatoon Light & Power
Saskatoon Light & Power continues to address widespread power outages affecting customers across the city. Over 100 power workers are actively assessing damage, identifying affected areas and carrying out repairs as quickly and safely as possible.
The latest updates are available on the Saskatoon Light & Power Outage Map by visiting saskatoon.ca/outages and also saskatoon.ca/servicealerts.
We appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding as our teams work to safely restore service across Saskatoon and display the most up-to-date information on the Outage Map. To report an outage, please contact Saskatoon Light & Power at 306-975-2414 (24/7 hotline).
Saskatoon Fire Department
The Saskatoon Fire Department (SFD) dispatched and monitored 34 incidents over a 90-minute period overnight for fire crews to respond to.
The SFD Communications Centre also dispatched and monitored multiple rural fire department responses for cities of Warman, Martensville and the Towns of Osler and Dalmeny.
Fire crews responded to multiple electrical hazards of downed and arcing power lines which caused several small fires.
Roadways & Transportation
Roadways crews are actively clearing lanes, roads and catch basins of storm debris, including branches, leaves and other materials, to help maintain safe travel conditions and proper drainage.
Residents are encouraged to use caution during their commute, particularly at intersections where traffic signals still may be without power. Treat all non-functioning traffic lights as four-way stops and watch for crews working near roadways. Additionally, crews are addressing any street signs that were blown down and traffic signals facing the wrong direction.
Waste Collection
Some waste carts may have blown over. If your cart was missed because it was blown over at the time of collection, crews will not be returning for a second pickup. Please ensure your cart is placed upright and accessible for collection on your scheduled pickup day.
Parks
Parks crews are currently responding to high-priority tree hazards, including clearing fallen trees obstructing roadways and removing hanging branches that pose an immediate safety risk. Given the significant number of locations requiring attention, branch pickup and debris removal will take several days to complete. We appreciate the public’s patience as crews work through all reported sites and continue cleanup efforts across the city.
Customer Care Centre
If there are any essential services that require attention causing safety concerns, please contact the Service Saskatoon 24/7 Customer Care Centre at 306-975-2476. Please note that the Customer Care Centre is experiencing a high volume of calls as a result of last night’s storm and are focusing on providing support to safety and essential services.
McOrmond Drive overpass closed overnight July 11 for bridge repairs
July 9, 2026 - 9:00am

The closure will begin at 9 p.m. on Saturday, July 11, and is expected to be lifted by 7 a.m. on Sunday, July 12, weather permitting.
This work requires crews to jack (lift) each side of the bridge deck to remove and replace damaged bearings. One westbound lane of College Drive will be closed, but all other traffic flow will be maintained throughout the project. Drivers are encouraged to zipper merge to keep traffic moving smoothly.
Pedestrian and cycling access across the overpass will remain open during the closure. Detours will be in place to guide motorists around the area.
