Bridgeland Main Street: Phase Two Construction Update + Temporary Road Closure
This construction season, as part of the Bridgeland Main Street Project, The City is completing sidewalk and streetscape improvements along 1 Avenue NE between 11 Street to 6 Street NE. Crews are finishing construction on the south side of 1 Avenue between 7A Street to 8A Street NE and we are targeting completion by the end of August 2024.
Upcoming Work
During the week of September 3, the fourth stage of construction will begin on the north side of 1 Avenue NE between 9A to 8A Street NE (two street blocks), and we anticipate this work to take approximately eight (8) weeks. The included maps show the work areas and detour plans for 1 Avenue NE.
During the week of September 3, construction may potentially also begin on an additional two street blocks at the north side of 1 Avenue NE between 6 to 7 Streets NE (for a total of four street blocks along 1 Avenue NE during this stage), and we anticipate this work to take approximately eight (8) weeks. Please refer to Calgary.ca/bridgelandmainstreet to find ongoing updates.
Minor sidewalk reconstruction along 2 Avenue at intersections between 6 Street to 10 Street NE will continue concurrently and last throughout the year which is expected to have minimal effect to traffic access through the community.
Please note, construction is variable, and the schedule is subject to change depending on factors such as complexity, weather, supply chain, and access. We appreciate your patience while crews are working in your area.
The construction work hours for the Main Streets Program are Monday to Saturday from 7am to 10pm, and construction activity on weekends, weekdays, and overnight as required. Visit Calgary.ca/bridgelandmainstreet to find ongoing updates on construction activities and detour information.
Temporary Road Closure
As part of ongoing construction along 1 and 2 Avenue NE in Bridgeland, we would like to inform you of a temporary road closure at 2 Avenue and 9 Street NE intersection planned on August 30 – September 2, 2024, to complete the installation of underground stormwater drainage utility upgrades. Access for local traffic will be maintained throughout construction.
After the stormwater utility work is completed, new concrete sidewalks and curbs will be installed in the area over the following weeks in September.
