North Commuter Parkway

The North Commuter Parkway project in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan included the replacement of the 109-year-old downtown Traffic Bridge and the construction of the new Chief Mistawasis Bridge, a six-lane crossing over the South Saskatchewan River.

It also delivered 8.3 km of new four- and six-lane arterial roads. The new bridge was named in the honour of Chief Mistawasis, an influential Indigenous leader who negotiated Treaty No. 6 in the 1870s.

Operational since 2018, the project enhances regional transportation connectivity and is under concession until 2048.

Sustainability

The project significantly improves city-wide traffic flow, reducing congestion and lowering emissions through decreased travel times and fuel consumption. It also improves public transit efficiency and contributes to overall economic productivity.

The project annually contributes to the White Buffalo Youth Lodge providing school supplies to kids in need.
