Wascana Parkway Extension to Prince of Wales Drive

The Wascana Parkway Extension to Prince of Wales Drive Functional Study explores future transportation and land use options in the area. The study will assess feasibility, impacts, routing options and to conduct comprehensive engagement before any future decisions are brought to City Council. Planning for an extension of Wascana Parkway to Prince of Wales Drive in southeast Regina dates back to City records in 1978:

  • In February 1987 Regina City Council registered a road right-of-way for the southward extension of Prince of Wales Drive to Wascana Creek.

  • In 2005, the McKell Wascana Conservation Area was created east of the planned Prince of Wales Drive extension, confirming the intent to eventually extend the road across Wascana Creek.

  • This extension is identified as part of the City of Regina's Transportation Master Plan (2017) which was approved by City Council.

  • The Wascana Parkway extension was examined as part of the 2022 Arcola Avenue Corridor Study. That study confirmed the importance of this connection for east Regina residents and identified it as a necessary alternative route during any future construction or disruptions along Arcola Avenue.

Why Your Input Matters

Your feedback will help the City identify and understand ideas, concerns and questions related to traffic, safety, noise, environmental, heritage, feasibility and construction planning. It will support informed decision-making by gathering input to help refine the roadway’s functional design.

  • Feasibility Study Launch

    Public participation is a central component of the Wascana Parkway Extension to Prince of Wales Drive Functional Study. Rightsholders along with interested and impacted parties — including Ducks Unlimited, the RM of Sherwood, property owners such as George Gordon Developments Ltd. and adjacent residents — have already demonstrated interest related to neighbourhood impacts, environmental and heritage protection and land considerations.

    Engagement efforts will be designed to provide clear and accessible information, while gathering feedback and facilitating meaningful dialogue through a combination of meetings, engagement sessions and online tools.

    The overarching goal of community engagement for the Wascana Parkway Extension project is to ensure residents, interested and impacted parties, rightsholders and the broader Regina community are well informed, meaningfully consulted and provided with clear opportunities to share input.
