Starting Saturday, March 2 at 5 a.m., northbound 10 Street N.W. between 5 Ave N.W. to SAIT Way N.W. will be closed to traffic for flood mitigation work. A full road closure within the work area will begin March 9-April 8. SAIT Way N.W. will remain open and accessible by traveling south on 10 St N.W. from 16 Ave N.W., ensuring access in and out of SAIT.
The Upper Plateau Separation project in Hillhurst Sunnyside consists of installing a larger, dedicated pipe that will collect and move stormwater from the communities on top of the hill directly to the Bow River, bypassing Sunnyside, to help prevent flooding in the community. It’s one of several community drainage improvements happening in the area. More information is at Calgary.ca/sunnysidecdi

The City takes all efforts to limit work to daytime hours, but for this project it is necessary to work at night to complete the work safely, efficiently, and minimize the disruption to residents and commuters in the area. This approach will lead to construction noise at night.
We want to thank residents for your patience and understanding while we complete this necessary work that will help protect the community from flood ris
