Bike lane construction set to wrap up in downtown Lethbridge

Pavement markings: Will be placed on 7 Street South, from 4 Avenue to 7 Avenue and along 4 Avenue from 6 Street to Stafford Drive, as well as a small area on 6 Street near 4 Avenue. Parking restrictions will be in effect June 10-11 in localized areas. Marking work will continue through the rest of the week with only minor short duration traffic disruptions and lane closures.
Concrete block placement: Concrete cycling lane blocks will be placed along the new cycling lanes on 7 Street, between 4 Avenue and 6 Avenue. Blocks will be strategically placed with gaps for pedestrian access where needed. This will require closure of small, localized sections of parking areas to allow for placement of the blocks.
Signage: Roadway and cycling lane signage will be installed along 4 Avenue and along 7 Street, where it couldn’t be completed last fall. This work will be completed with only minor disruptions to traffic and should not require any large parking area closures.
Other miscellaneous work: Remedial concrete and asphalt patching work will be taking place next week directly adjacent to the CIBC on 7 Street. Only a small parking area directly in front of the accessible parking stall ramp will be impacted during the work.
