97 Street Rehabilitation
About the Project
The city has resurfaced 97 Street, from Yellowhead Trail to 135 Avenue, with a stone mastic asphalt to resolve the rutting problem and to extend the life of the road.
There was also the replacement of concrete where the existing was deteriorating. Portions of the road that had extensive damage were completely rebuilt.
Traffic Impacts:
- Traffic was maintained to 2 lanes in each direction during peak periods and restricted to 1 lane overnight to allow for work being completed.
- The construction for this process create some noise and minimal dust.
- Parking was not affected.
Construction Included:
- New street lights and a traffic signal on 97 Street Northbound and Yellowhead Trail.
- Replacement of sidewalk, medians, and curb and gutter as needed.
- Improvements to road alignment at the northeast corner of Yellowhead Trail as well as a widening to the east side of 97 Street from 135 Avenue to north of 137 Avenue to create a bus only lane.
