COUNCIL CONSIDERS PLAN TO END STONY PLAIN ROAD CLOSURES

Councillor Andrew Knack says residents and businesses in Ward Nakota Isga have suffered from Valley Line LRT construction fatigue long enough and want the work completed this year. Knack put forward a motion to that end in October and the City and construction company Marigold Infrastructure Partners have developed a plan to accelerate the roadwork. The proposed plan would see work done in phases with certain sections being closed entirely, for weeks or months, at a time. This would mean short term pain but a goal to complete construction in the area by the end of this November.

Kris Burwash, owner of Listen Records says his business has been inconvenienced for years so he’s on board with the proposed plan — for now.

The Global News article below lists proposed timelines for the various phases.
