The City of Yorkton has partnered with Saskatchewan Ministry of Highways and Infrastructure (part of the Urban Highway Connector Program) for the reconstruction of York Road from Gladstone Avenue to Highway 9.

Construction is set to begin this week, and take approximately two years to complete. Road closures and construction will be set up in phases, so that traffic and business disruption is kept to a minimum during the duration of the project.

The awarded contractor, Ungar Construction Ltd., has made temporary roadway access to Yorkton Concrete Ltd., EECOL Electric, and Quality Tire Service as they begin work on Phase 1A of York Road.

Road closures will tentatively begin tonight, Thursday, May 11, 2023 from Highway 9 to Dracup Ave. Temporary business access and detour signs will be posted along the construction site.

Phase 1A is expected to take approximately four weeks, weather permitting and barring any unforeseen circumstances.
