In order to accommodate Valley Line West LRT construction, the bike lanes on 102 Avenue downtown will be temporarily relocated to 103 Avenue.
On or around October 14, work will begin to install protected bike lanes along 103 Avenue from 103 Street to Railtown Park Trail (110 Street). This work is expected to take approximately three weeks, weather permitting. Once installation is complete, cyclists can use the bike lanes on 103 Avenue, and the bike lanes on 102 Avenue will close. The 103 Avenue bike lanes are expected to be in place until the end of 2027. During this time, on-street parking will be limited on 103 Avenue, including changes to EPark zones.
To access 103 Avenue, cyclists can use the existing north-south bike infrastructure along Railtown Park Trail (110 Street), 106 Street or 103 Street.
The 103 Avenue bike lanes will be integrated into the larger downtown cycle network, including bike signals, signs and pavement markings. Ongoing communication will be provided to cyclists, commuters, residents and businesses, along with wayfinding signage.
The City and Marigold Infrastructure Partners (MIP) recognize that shifting the bike lanes may be disruptive. The City and MIP appreciate the patience of active transportation users, including cyclists, who will have to adapt their routines and shift their route.
As part of the Valley Line West project, new, permanent bike lanes will be built on 102 Avenue. Valley Line West construction is anticipated to be complete in 2028, followed by an extensive testing and commissioning phase to ensure safety and reliability before the line opens.
