Residents in Saskatoon are finding it harder to get around this summer as construction projects pop up across the city. This year, the construction season started later than usual because of a prolonged spring. The cooler weather pushed back road work, leaving many streets in need of repairs or upgrades at the same time. As a result, drivers are encountering more construction zones, closures, and detours than they might in a typical year. City officials say the delayed start means crews are working to catch up, but the simultaneous work has created bottlenecks in several neighborhoods. Commuters report longer travel times and frequent rerouting. Some have expressed frustration with the congestion, but understand that the projects are necessary for infrastructure improvements. The city advises drivers to plan extra time for their trips and to check for updates on road closures. While the situation is challenging, crews are expected to continue working through the summer to complete the work. No timeline has been given for when traffic will return to normal.
