The Summer Streets Program makes streets safer and more livable for everyone by supporting active modes of travel so everyone can discover Edmonton and enjoy the summer outdoors.
To prepare for the winter season, the following 2022 Summer Streets will be removed, starting November 1, 2022.
Bike lanes and shared pathways are available year-round. View a map of active pathways and their snow clearing schedule at edmonton.ca/WinterCycling.
Summer Streets are placed where they could most benefit Edmontonians:
Along Summer Streets, a vehicle lane is converted for people to use for physical activity. Temporary flex posts are installed to separate mobility lanes from vehicle traffic so people can bike, scoot, and roll comfortably and safely in a separate lane. The speed limit on the adjacent roadway is reduced to 40 km/h where the lane is not separated by a median.
Shared Streets and Mobility Lanes were first introduced to Edmonton in spring 2020 to support safe, outdoor activity, and to address the demand for physical distancing within densely populated neighbourhoods.
A shared street is when a road is opened up to provide room for all modes, including biking, walking, and other active modes. To ensure everyone’s safety, vehicles are restricted to local traffic and the speed limit is reduced to 20 km/hr.
Shared Streets are available through the Vision Zero Street Lab program. Communities interested in bringing a shared street to their neighbourhood can visit edmonton.ca/StreetLabs to learn more and get involved.
We review the program every year based on public feedback and traffic data collected over the season to determine how it can best serve the needs of Edmontonians in the future. That analysis will be conducted over the winter months to prepare for next year.
