The City of Edmonton will be closing Jasper Avenue from 90 Street to 91 Street for necessary replacement of Latta Bridge. The full road closure begins the week of August 22, 2022, and will be in place until fall 2023.
The Latta Bridge Replacement Project will see the demolition and reconstruction of the existing bridge and will include the addition of a new shared pathway. Infrastructure replacement happens once a structure has reached the end of its useful life cycle.
Motorists, pedestrians, cyclists and transit users are asked to plan ahead and detour to other routes. Starting August 22, ETS bus routes 2 and 101 will detour from bus stops on 111 Avenue and 84 Street and will use bus stops at Stadium Transit Centre instead. Route 2 buses will also use bus stops on Stadium Road, 107 Avenue, and 95 Street during this detour.
Until this work is completed, ETS will run a new shuttle, Route 998 (Stadium Shuttle). This shuttle will run a loop between the east side of Stadium Station (111 Avenue/84 Street) and Jasper Avenue/87 Street..
Construction on a nearby project, Kinnaird Bridge Rehabilitation, is anticipated for spring 2023.
