Street improvement program set to begin in May

The City of Lloyd - minster, in conjunc - tion with Knelson Sand & Gravel Ltd., will begin the annual Street Improvement Program this spring.

Due to the age and condition of the existing infrastructure, each year, the City rehabilitates, maintains and replaces the existing asphalt concrete pavement, concrete curb and gutter and sidewalks to ensure adequate levels of service for residents and businesses throughout Lloydminster.

The 2023 Street Improvement Program is divided into two major categories and locations:

Street

Improvements

- 31 Street from 57 Ave. to 55 Ave.

- 50 Ave. from 54 Street to 55 Street

- 52 Ave. from 27

Street to 29 Street

- 49 Ave. from 26 Street to 29 Street

- 49 Ave. from 32 Street to 36 Street

- 45 Ave. from 46 Street to 50 Street

- 46 Ave. from 49 Street to 50 Street

- 57A Ave. from 37 Street to 40 Street

Sidewalk Improvements

- 49 Ave. from 32 Street south to the existing sidewalk

Pedestrian access will be maintained through- out the duration of construction.

Vehicle access will be restricted intermittently to permit certain portions of the work to be completed, but it will be restored as quickly as possible.

Residents must follow marked detour routes and cautiously drive when passing construction crews.

Weather permitting, construction is expected to be completed by Sept. 1.

The 2023 Street

Improvement Program has an approved capital budget of $2,135,875.
