The City of Saskatoon met with the 3×33 Community Association at our last monthly meeting (November 29, 2022) to discuss upcoming changes to 33rd Street.
The City is planning to remove the school zone along 33rd from Valens Drive to Avenue K North, in alignment with Best Practice guidelines from the Transportation Association of Canada.
In addition, after a study that included traffic volumes, vehicle speeds, collision history, pedestrian volumes, and site observations, the city is proposing the following improvements:
33rd Street and Avenue K
33rd Street and Avenue L
33rd Street and Valens Drive
See the City of Saskatoon’s PowerPoint presentation below for more information:
These recommendations will go to the Standing Policy Committee on Transportation (SPCT), likely on February 7th. If you have any questions or suggestions, you can send them directly to the SPCT, or email Julian Petras, Transportation Engineer with the City of Saskatoon (julian.petras@saskatoon.ca).
Did you know homeowners are responsible for cleaning up leaves on the sidewalk or boulevard adjacent to their property? Loose leaves can go in your green cart or be dropped off at a compost depot, and bagged leaves can go in your black cart, but please do not push leaves onto the street as they can cause drainage issues. You can also spread leaves on your garden as mulch. Many beneficial insects, such as ladybugs, overwinter in piles of leaves.

Saskatoon’s Community Associations are volunteer run organizations that offer affordable sport, culture and recreation programs, create networks and give people a voice in neighbourhood improvements.
Would you like to influence what programs are offered in our area? Indoor program coordinators help shape which local fitness and recreational classes are offered. The president keeps a finger on the pulse of civic matters and connects us to City Hall and services such a law enforcement. The treasurer supports the work of the association by ensuring the funds flow appropriately. The rink coordinator keeps the rink operating with the help of rink maintenance. If you’re only up for occasional special events or want to spend a year getting a feel for things, you can be a member at large.

For the 2022/23 season, we’re looking for a President, Treasurer, Indoor Coordinator, and Members at Large to help us keep our programming going. We meet monthly from September to May (plus the AGM), with summers off.
