College Avenue West to Kortright Road West

The City is working with 39 Seven Inc. to install bike lanes on Scottsdale Drive from College Avenue West to Kortright Road West. This project supports the planning and policies in the City’s Cycling Master Plan, Transportation Master Plan, and Official Plan.

Construction Beginning in November

Installation of the new bike lanes is planned to start on or around November 4 and take approximately 2 weeks to complete, weather permitting. The construction work will involve changes to pavement markings, installing new traffic signs, and installing pre-cast curbs and flexible bollards.

Scottsdale Drive Lane Reductions Starting November 4

Northbound and southbound traffic will remain open on Scottsdale Drive and will be facilitated throughout the project. However, construction activities may require lane reductions and/or limit traffic speeds and movement, so delays should be expected. Please follow posted signs for safety.

Pedestrian Access

Some existing sidewalks and boulevard areas may be temporarily unavailable during the project construction. Please follow posted signs for safety.

Property Access and Parking

All businesses in the construction area will remain open and accessible throughout construction.

Existing on-street parking on Scottsdale Drive between College Avenue West and Kortright Road West will be removed as part of this project. Traffic signs will be updated to reflect the new parking restrictions.

Every effort will be made to maintain access to driveways in the construction area during working hours (7 a.m.–7 p.m.). Construction activities and equipment movement may temporarily impact access to private property and delays should be expected.

Guelph Transit

Guelph Transit Routes 6, 8, 18 and 19 will continue to operate as scheduled. Transit stops may be temporarily relocated for short durations of the project. Visit guelphtransit.ca for information about stop changes and route detours.

City Services

There will be no interruption to any City services during construction. Waste collection will not be affected. Please continue to place your green, blue and grey carts at the curb, as per your regular schedule.

The City appreciates your patience, understanding and co-operation during this important construction project. Project details and any updates will be posted on guelph.ca/construction.
