33rd Street will be closed today between Howell Avenue and Valens Drive for unplanned water main repairs. Detours will be in place guiding motorists around the work zone. This project is expected to take one day 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.

The Electric Vehicle Charging Station (EVCS) pilot program is complete, and a fee-for-use model will begin on October 30, 2025. Fees can be paid using the ChargePoint app, RFID card, and directly with credit cards or through digital wallet.

User fees are in effect 24 hours a day, including weekends, evenings, statutory and other holidays. The maximum charging duration is three hours. Onsite signage is in place to provide more information to users.

At its August 27 meeting, City Council resolved electric vehicle charging stations at Lakewood and Lawson Civic Centres would begin charging user fees as soon as possible. This decision supports long-term service and fairness for users and community.

Installed in May 2023, these stations had been offered at no cost to the user as part of a two-year pilot project, allowing the City to study the usage patterns, electricity consumption on site, impact on peak demand in the buildings, repair and maintenance requirements, role of internal stakeholders including facilities management, parking enforcement, leisure centres, customer service, and other details to better understand the implications of adding such infrastructure to other public-facing civic sites. The stations experienced steady use and positive feedback during the pilot project.

The City of Saskatoon’s three golf courses (Holiday Park, Silverwood, and Wildwood Golf Courses) have rescheduled the final day of operation from Sunday, October 26 to Sunday, October 19, 2025. The change in weather forecast has accelerated the original plan to ensure fall maintenance is complete prior to drops in temperature and the arrival of moisture. This will give the golf courses the best opportunity to provide quality conditions for the start of the 2026 season.

The last day of operation at each course is as follows: 

Holiday Park Golf Course

• Executive 9 – October 13, 2025
• Championship Course & Driving Range – October 19, 2025

Silverwood Golf Course

• Back 9 – October 13, 2025
• Front 9 & Driving Range – October 19, 2025

Wildwood Golf Course

• Front & Back 9 – October 19, 2025

The City would like to thank all patrons for their support this year. Holiday Park Golf Course pro shop will remain open throughout the winter season for Club 6 pack, gift card and season pass purchases during regular business hours, Monday to Friday.

For more information about any of the City’s golf courses please visit saskatoon.ca/golf.
