Maddock & Wascana - Storm Drain, Sanitary and Water Utility Upgrades

Project Update:

Traffic impacts - Work on Qu'Appelle

Wascana St will be closed (local traffic only)from Schofield Place to Maddock Avenue from May 4th to 8th during working hours.

Further up the street, Wascana St from Maddock Avenue North to Burnside Rd W will be partially closed during Working Hours from May 4th to 8th.

Paving Closure:

Driveway paving will occur on Qu'Appelle St sometime between May 4th and May 8th

What's happening?

We are replacing storm drain mains, sanitary mains and water mains on Wascana from Obed Avenue to Burnside Road West, with additional works on Maddock Avenue, Qu'Appelle Street, and Davin Street.

Why is it important?

Many sections of sanitary and storm drain mains along Wascana Street were found to be in poor condition, while there is also a history of water main breaks and service connection leaks due to aging infrastructure.

When?

Construction for this project is scheduled to last from November 7, 2025 through mid-May 2026.

The second phase of the project, water main replacement, is currently scheduled to start early April 2026 and last until mid-July 2026.

How will this affect me during construction?

Vehicle access will be impacted by possible closures and single lane alternating traffic. Residents will still have access to their properties during construction. Traffic control personnel and signage will be in place to help direct vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians around the work area. Our Public Works crews will notify residents of any direct impacts to their properties or access.
