On June 25, 2026, Saskatchewan's Highways Minister Kim Gartner announced a new bi-weekly construction update schedule, releasing updates every second Friday at 10 a.m. The province is experiencing various construction activities, including major highway improvements, bridge projects, and resurfacing work aimed at enhancing safety and supporting economic growth.
According to the Government of Saskatchewan, key updates include the completion of a new bridge over Prairie River, a $6.6 million seal coat project in Glenavon and Moosomin, and continued work on sections of Highway 7 and Highway 10. These projects are part of a broader infrastructure plan to maintain and upgrade the provincial highway network.
The new bi-weekly updates will provide timely information on road conditions and construction zones to assist travelers and commuters. The updates are accessible via the Highway Hotline, the official source for provincial road information. This initiative aims to improve communication regarding roadwork and potential travel delays.
Minister Gartner emphasized the importance of these construction projects for economic activity and public safety. The provincial government has a multi-year plan for infrastructure development, with ongoing projects distributed across different regions of Saskatchewan. Drivers are advised to check the Highway Hotline before traveling for the latest information.
Saskatchewan residents and businesses should monitor these updates, particularly those involved in transportation or frequent travel within the province. General road users are encouraged to plan routes accordingly, accounting for potential detours or delays due to ongoing construction.
