Shared Streets are open for people who walk, bike and drive, regardless of how they choose to move around our city. Vehicle access is restricted to local traffic only along Shared Streets, and since all modes are using the same space, the speed limit is reduced to 20 km/hr. Streets in densely populated neighbourhoods are the priority, so all Edmontonians have an opportunity to space out.

The City of Edmonton will adjust push buttons at pedestrian crossings and allocate some roadways for shared use effective Thursday. These changes will help prevent the spread of COVID-19 and encourage physical distancing while Edmontonians are outside. 

Pedestrian signals will become automatic at 56 intersections located in high pedestrian areas and around hospitals to eliminate the need to push buttons at these crossings. The City will post signage to promote the change in these areas. The audible signal for the visually impaired will continue to be activated by pushing the button.

The original Order was repealed by the City after the Government of Alberta issued new guidance for Taxis, Limos and Rideshares on May 24. This new provincial guidance covers driver hygiene, cleaning and disinfection, distancing, passengers, and more.

Provincial Guidance for Taxis, Limos & Rideshares

Edmontonians are reminded to use caution and follow physical distancing guidelines and practical recommendations when interacting in public spaces. 

Please keep your physical distance; at least 2 metres from others, whether it's on trails, in parks, on stairs, or buying groceries. It’s important to follow physical distancing practices as outlined by Alberta Health Services.
 
Park Rangers and security personnel will be patrolling parks, staircases, and trails to support closures and physical distancing requirements.

Beginning June 15, the funicular will resume operation from 7 am to 9 pm, providing accessibility options into the river valley for Edmontonians.  Additional COVID-19 prevention measures will be introduced, including limiting ridership to two people at a time, adding signage about physical distancing and increasing cleaning of frequently-touched surfaces.

We are in this together - we can keep each other safe and healthy by following a few simple steps. Wearing a mask or face covering is highly encouraged, physically distance yourself from others, consider travelling during off-peak times and continue to follow AHS guidelines. Bus shields and LRT cabs provide excellent protection so Operators do not need to wear masks when in a shielded area. However, Operators and other public facing transit employees will wear masks when going into public areas.

Essential health care workers may be eligible for Late Night Supplement Service that includes one-way trips between 10pm and 1am.  Our latest AHS pickups are at 12:30am. Please call 311 for eligibility and to register. 

Starting April 20, the last LRT service departure is 10 p.m. Late Night Owl bus service ends after midnight. These adjustments better align with the travel needs of those customers making essential trips, while helping to further address safety, security, public health and cleanliness challenges.

Updated June 20, 2020

We continue to use enhanced cleaning and disinfecting procedures daily on buses, trains, DATS vehicles, transit centres, and LRT stations.
