UPDATE: This service update originally posted an incorrect date of May 25. The date has now  been corrected to Saturday, May 24. 

Temporary road closures and detours will be in effect in the downtown core on Saturday, May 24, to accommodate the Stompede Parade.

The parade begins at noon, travelling westbound along 100 Avenue from 95 Street to Muskoseepi Park. Residents are encouraged to plan ahead and allow extra travel time in the area.

Traffic Impacts:

• Starting at 5:00 a.m.:
  100 Avenue westbound closes between 98 Street and 102 Street. North-south traffic remains open on 98 Street, 99 Street, 100 Street, 101 Street and 102 Street.
• Starting at 10:00 a.m.:
  95 Street, between 108 Avenue and 100 Avenue, becomes restricted to local traffic as parade marshalling begins. A full closure follows closer to parade time.
• Starting at 11:15 a.m.:
  Lane closures begin on roads approaching the route. Intersections remain open as long as safely possible before full closures are implemented.
• Just before noon:
  100 Avenue westbound closes at 95 Street. Westbound drivers can detour via 93 Street and 94 Street to reach 108 Avenue. North-south traffic at 96 Street and 100 Avenue is also restricted around this time.
• During the parade:
  As the parade progresses, rolling closures affect north-south traffic at 96 Street through to 102 Street. Detours are available via 92 Street or 108 Street.
• On 98 Street, 100 Street and 102 Street:
  Detours one block north and south of 100 Avenue help preserve traffic flow until the parade passes.

Reopening Details:

Cross streets reopen to north-south traffic once the parade has passed and spectators have largely dispersed. Westbound traffic on 100 Avenue reopens in sections after each major intersection clears, preventing vehicles from trailing directly behind the procession.

Estimated Duration:
The parade is expected to take about one hour from start to finish.

The City thanks residents and drivers for their patience and cooperation during this community celebration.
