Construction will resume on the Valley Line West LRT and closures are expected to last until the end of August.
This closure will not affect north and southbound commutes as vehicle access will be maintained on 134 Street.

- install concrete sidewalks, street lights and foundations for the overhead electrical system
- track bed construction and first rail installation; and
- ongoing work on the Stony Plain Road bridge.
