More North Battleford streets to see roadwork as summer paving ramps up

Jul 16, 2026 | 1:00 PM

Drivers across North Battleford can expect more traffic disruptions over the next six weeks as the city’s summer road construction program expands into additional neighbourhoods, with paving scheduled on more than a dozen streets through the remainder of July and August.

The work is part of the city’s Underground Pipe and Asphalt Replacement (UPAR) program, which includes surface rehabilitation on several roads this season and carryover work in Parsons Industrial Park. 

City council awarded the spring and summer paving contract to K & S Asphalt Services Ltd. for $3.17 million, with the work budgeted at about $3.8 million.

Roadwork over the coming weeks is scheduled on 13th Avenue, sections of 16th Avenue and 25th Avenue, Gregory Drive, Riverside Drive, Trudeau Street, Martin Crescent, Laurier Crescent, Winder Crescent and several other residential streets. 

During milling and paving, on-street parking will generally be prohibited in affected areas, while access on Riverside Drive will be limited during construction. Residents can check the city’s online maps to see where alternative parking is available during construction. 

One planned project will not move ahead as scheduled. The city said work on 104th Street between Railway Avenue and Ninth Avenue has been deferred because of pending future planning considerations. No additional details were provided.

Meanwhile, several projects have already been completed, including work at 21st Avenue and 99th Street and on 103rd Street between Railway Avenue and 11th Avenue.

Other locations are progressing through concrete work, milling or paving as crews continue moving through the city’s construction schedule.

Construction is expected to continue through August, with parking restrictions and temporary traffic disruptions varying by location as crews move from one neighbourhood to the next.
