SPRING SWEEPING AND POTHOLE REPAIRS

WORK IS UNDERWAY ON HIGH TRAFFIC STREETS CITY-WIDE What you can expect from us: • City crews are pre-sweeping and repairing potholes with hot mix asphalt on high traffic streets. • Pre-sweeping moves quickly around parked vehicles to collect the bulk of the debris left behind over winter, in preparation for curb-to-curb street sweeping starting in May. • Potholes are repaired in order of priority, to reduce the risk of vehicle damage and tripping hazards. What you can do: • Help us locate potholes with the Report-a-Pothole interactive map at saskatoon.ca/betterroads. • Phone our Customer Service Centre at 306-975-2476 immediately to report potholes that could cause vehicle damage or are a tripping hazard for sidewalk users. • Watch for street sweeping signs in your neighbourhood in early May and move your vehicles off the street for the curb-to-curb sweeping. • For more information, visit saskatoon.ca/betterroads, email roadways@saskatoon.ca or call 306-975-2476.
