Saskatchewan Drive Corridor Project

The City of Regina is working to revitalize the City Centre to contribute to a vibrant community, economic prosperity and community safety and wellbeing.

Saskatchewan Drive is a key gateway into Regina’s City Centre. It is an important link to Downtown, core neighbourhoods like Cathedral and Heritage and destinations like Mosaic Stadium and the REAL District. The section of road we are focusing on stretches from McTavish Street to Winnipeg Street.

Saskatchewan Drive Corridor Project Map The Saskatchewan Drive Corridor Project is a priority due to aging and deteriorating infrastructure, increasing traffic volumes and lack of safe pedestrian travel areas. The aim is to also improve the function, safety, connectivity, land use and overall beautification of Saskatchewan Drive. The Project will create a better experience for all users and support investment and redevelopment to create more vibrancy along the corridor.

This Project looks to transform Saskatchewan Drive into a Grand Avenue and multi-modal corridor. A Grand Avenue is a gateway in and out of a key area of our city, which may feature robust landscaping, street furniture and enhanced design and public realm.

The project team developed a Draft Saskatchewan Drive Corridor Plan, which requires Council approval.

Once approved by City Council, the Project will move forward in three design and construction phases:

Phase I: Heritage neighbourhood section of Saskatchewan Drive Corridor
Phase II: Downtown section of Saskatchewan Drive Corridor
Phase III: Cathedral neighbourhood section of Saskatchewan Drive Corridor
*Council approved by City Council on July 9.

A Public Information Session was held at on February 8. The presentation is now available to view and posted in the Documents section. If you have questions about the Draft Corridor Plan, email saskdrive@regina.ca

The City will continue to provide updates and engagement opportunities as the project progresses.

I own a property along Sask Dr. The address is 1700 Quebec Street. Is the city going to want that property to facilitate this project. I would really like to know before I make alternative plans for that lot. I would hate to build a brand new $600,000.00 condo on it, just to have the City rip it down once they acquire it.

Hello,
Thank you for your question. The City has no plans to acquire any properties along Saskatchewan Drive between Winnipeg Street and Broad Street as part of this project at this time.
Did Council approve the re-submitted Corridor Plan? what are the next steps?

Hello,
Thank you for your question. Once design begins for the Cathedral section of the work, each property will be evaluated based on the proposed Corridor Plan Policy, if it is approved. At that time, impacted stakeholders will be considered and involved in the design outcomes.
