We know that your commute during this nine-day construction period might be challenging. We are identifying ways to make it a bit easier.

We recommend avoiding Macleod Trail to access downtown, as additional traffic and lane closures will impact your commute. Alternate routes may include:

• Glenmore to Crowchild to Bow Trail, entering downtown from the west; 
• Deerfoot Trail to Memorial, entering downtown using the 4 Avenue flyover; 

We encourage you to carpool to get downtown or beyond, if possible. Remember there will be higher volumes of traffic due to lane closures along northbound Macleod Trail and a likely increase in the number of vehicles on the road. This could also have an impact on parking, but there are options available.
