Construction to change vehicle accessibility on 102 Street near bypass
Crews will begin working on some new additions to 102 Street north of the bypass in the next few weeks.
Capital Planning and Construction Manager Matt Hinton says construction starts at the end of May or beginning of June. The city is building a boulevard down the centre of 102 Street which would block access to some businesses on 117 Avenue.
“It was recommended to put something there to try and alleviate some of the congestion with the people wanting to turn left to go onto the service road. One of the recommendations was to put in an island,” said Hinton.
Drivers will only be able to turn right onto 102 Street from 117 Avenue as well as turn right onto 117 Avenue from 102 Street.
