Crack filling work will be happening in multiple locations across Saskatoon starting Sunday.

The work is expected to take around two weeks to complete. Crews will be working every night starting at 7 pm, if weather is permitting. Only one lane will be closed at a time.

The process of crack filling involves applying hot rubberized asphalt material to cracks in the roadway. The material seals cracks caused by asphalt expanding and contracting due to temperature changes. The treatment is done to help prevent cracks from becoming potholes.

Crack filling will take place at:
” Circle Drive southbound, from Clancy Drive to the Gordie Howe Bridge
” Idylwyld Drive northbound, from 25th Street to 31st Street
” Idylwyld Drive northbound, from 51st Street to Marquis Drive West
” Circle Drive westbound, from Warman Road to the Circle Drive North Bridge
” Warman Road southbound, from Circle Drive to 33rd Street East
” Central Avenue, from 107th Street to College Drive
” McKercher Drive, from College Drive to 105th Street East
” Circle Drive northbound and southbound, from 14th Street to College Drive
