Road and Facility Closures

Crews were busy this week with pothole patching on Whoop-Up Drive. Next week, our ongoing Transportation Operations’ work will involve bridge maintenance. From June 10-12 (4 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day), bridge maintenance work will impact westbound lanes on Whoop-Up Drive. On June 13 and 14 (4 a.m. to 7 a.m. each day), work will shift to eastbound lanes.

As City crews and contractors are working on the annual road and infrastructure maintenance around Lethbridge, the City is encouraging residents to stay up-to-date with summer construction in just one click.

Bridge maintenance will impact traffic on the University Drive West bridge, crossing over Whoop Up Drive West.

Road maintenance will impact traffic on the Scenic Drive North overpass, crossing over 5 Avenue North.

Construction is about to resume on 7 Street South from 4 Avenue to 7 Avenue to connect the bike lanes in Downtown Lethbridge to the 7 Avenue bike boulevard and the city-wide cycling network. The planned work, all weather dependent, is to begin on Monday, May 27, and is estimated to take approximately four weeks to complete.

Residents and businesses along 11 Street South are getting an upgrade to their water service infrastructure this summer.

Concrete overlay work is being conducted this week and next week along 10 Avenue South, between 11 Street South and 12A Street South.

An emergency sewer issue is resulting in lane closures in the 1800 block of 6 Avenue South.

Starting today Friday, March 15, 23 Street North from 26 Avenue to Meadowlark Boulevard will be closed in both directions due to a sewer service repair. This closure is expected to last until at least Monday, March 18.

Residents and motorists are advised that the eastbound lanes of 5 Avenue North are closed between 12C Street and 13 Street North to complete an emergency watermain repair.
