Saskatoon’s approved First Avenue bus plans may ‘negatively impact’ businesses, says advocates

Saskatoon city councillors have voted 7-4 to approve a recommended transit administration design for the First Avenue bus rapid transit project. The decision follows a slight alteration to a previous design that had been presented five months earlier.

Advocates have raised concerns regarding the approved plans, warning that the changes may negatively impact local businesses operating along the corridor. The project aims to develop the city's bus rapid transit infrastructure.
