Future of Scarth Street

What's next for Scarth? Share your thoughts on street revitalization. Banner for the project page.

We are excited to share that the project to revitalize the Scarth Street Mall is moving into Phase 2: Functional Design. Building on the foundational work completed in Phase 1, this stage focuses on ensuring the design will work well and shaping more details as we prepare for construction in 2027. For example, functional design considers how people will move through the space, event scenarios and where lighting will go.

Over the coming months, engagement will continue with residents, businesses and other key stakeholders to gather input and ensure the design reflects community needs and priorities.

To learn more about Phase 1 and the finalized conceptual design, please see the News Feed.

Vision & Design Feedback

Share your thoughts on the draft Vision and Conceptual Design through this Feedback tool between now and February 4, 2025.

The next phase of the project will further refine the design, the specific fixed components (like lighting, art, seating) as well as how the flexible spaces will operate and enable activities and events throughout the year.

CLOSED: This discussion has concluded. Thank you for your contributions.

Also please include programmable LED lighting to change the mood for specific downtown events (Pride Month, Rider Games, Canada Day, Nuit Blanche, FROST, etc.)

Looks great. Love the overhead lighting and increased tree planting. However, a PERMANENT FOUNTAIN right in the middle would beautiful, calming and the icing on the cake. Regina downtown lacks permanent water features.

Do not change anything until you get the budget under control and some debt paid off. The city can't just keep spending and going further into debt. We can't just keep increasing the debt!

Love the Design! this should be done to far more streets/maybe alleyways in our downtown, and the rest of the city!

Conceptual design looks good and with additional components it will be a well used area for downtown. Thank goodness the City finally listened to the city residents feedback to keep the status quo “Pedestrian traffic only” Good job!

Looks great! Glad to see that Scarth Street will remain a pedestrian only space. Nice to see a focused effort on improving our downtown.

The design looks fantastic. I am a large advocate for pedestrian infrastructure and I very much enjoy this conceptual design. I especially enjoy the addition of bike and scooter parking as I am also a large alternative transport advocate. Please consider more projects like this in the future!

I 100% approve of the decision to keep Scarth St as a pedestrian only space.
