Scona Road Widening and 99 Street Rehabilitation
About the Project - Scona Road Widening
The City of Edmonton has completed the construction to widen Scona Road, from Saskatchewan Drive to the Low Level Bridge. This widening will improve the roadway by adding an additional lane southbound and will include repairs to the sidewalk, curb and gutter as well as the addition of several streetscape elements.
Construction Included:
- Reconstruction and rehabilitation of pavement and curb/gutter on Scona Road northbound (from Saskatchewan Drive to Connors Road) and Scona Road northbound (from Saskatchewan Drive to Low Level Bridge).
- Radius improvements along Scona Road immediately south of Low Level Bridge.
- Construction of an additional lane on Scona Road southbound from the James MacDonald Bridge off-ramp to Saskatchewan Drive.
- Construction of a noise wall on the east side of Scona Road between 94 Avenue to approximately halfway towards 93 Avenue.
- Sidewalk, curb and gutter, and Shared Use Path construction.
With the additional lane on Scona Road southbound, a free-flow condition will be introduced for traffic exiting from the James MacDonald Bridge to Saskatchewan Drive. This will improve the overall traffic flow and safety of the roadway.
