11th Avenue Construction Kicks Off for 2026

The City of Regina, in partnership with SaskPower and SaskTel, will continue upgrades to 11th Avenue, between Albert Street and Broad Street. Construction will begin on April 6.

“The 11th Avenue Revitalization Project is a key part of the City Centre Revitalization Plan to create a walkable, welcoming and safe city centre that attracts more people and businesses to live, work, visit and invest,” said Chris Warren, Director, Roadways and Transportation. “This project will modernize critical infrastructure while enhancing accessibility and supporting a vibrant downtown experience.”

Now entering its fourth year, the 11th Avenue Revitalization Project is approaching its final stages, with the finished design beginning to take shape. The City’s partnership with Crown Corporations means their respective utility work is being done in coordination with the City’s work, reducing construction costs and the need for additional construction along this important downtown thoroughfare.

The project includes upgrades to the road, sidewalks and underground infrastructure, including utility lines. Enhancements such as wider pedestrian walkways, improved lighting and new trees will complete the streetscape. Once complete, Transit traffic will return to 11th Avenue.

Construction in 2026 will require a road closure between Scarth Street and Cornwall Street, beginning on April 6. As work progresses, closures will move west along 11th Avenue toward Albert Street, with crews completing underground utility upgrades and above ground road and sidewalk reconstruction. While the road will be closed or restricted to vehicles, pedestrian and business access will remain open adjacent to the construction zone.

Residents can view renderings of the completed streetscape by visiting the project website, which will also provide updates on construction progress, transit changes and current traffic restrictions along 11th Avenue at Regina.ca/11thAvenue.
