The Eau Claire Area Improvements Program is moving into construction again this spring. With the improving weather condition, it means our teams are projected to be back on site, with complete remobilization anticipated in mid-May. This means you can expect to see more construction activity and change in travel patterns in the area. Please follow the detour signs and travel with care.
With most of the Eau Claire Promenade complete and the Downtown Flood Barrier installed, this season you will see work continue for utilities, landscaping, hardscaping, site furnishings, and permanent connections into the fall of this year. In Eau Claire Plaza, things will start to take shape this season with the installation of our Gateway Timbers and festival light posts. There will be ongoing work for the hardscaping of the sidewalks, pathways, and podium.
This season we expect to see localized detours along the Downtown Flood Barrier and Eau Claire Promenade. The connections from Barclay Parade and the west side of the Plaza to the Bow River Pathway will remain closed until the project is complete. The dedicated detour on 3 Avenue will continue to be available until work on the Promenade and Flood Barrier are complete in the Fall of 2023.
Throughout construction, the Eau Claire Area Improvements Program will send detour and construction information out through our email newsletter and post to our website. If you have not yet signed up for our newsletters, visit calgary.ca/EauClaire.
