Drivers warned of traffic tie-ups on Circle Drive, Hwy 11

Repair work on a major interchange in Saskatoon is expected to cause delays through the weekend and into early next week.

The northbound curb and centre lanes of Highway 11 were closed at the cloverleaf overpass at Circle Drive starting Wednesday to allow for repair work following damage caused by a semi-truck last weekend.

The repairs are expected to continue through Oct. 31.

The situation caused bottlenecks in the area around the cloverleaf, particularly on Circle Drive South. Traffic also backed up at the intersection of Boychuk Drive and Highway 16.

The City of Saskatoon urged drivers to plan a different route if possible.
