Union Street East reconstruction from King Street to Moore Avenue

Welcome to the project page for the planned reconstruction of Union Street East between King Street South and Moore Avenue South. The city intends to completely reconstruct this section of Union to replace the aged watermain, sewers, and road structure (i.e. sidewalk, curbs and asphalt). This will also include the replacement of water and sanitary service laterals up to the common property line. In accordance with the Council approved Transportation Master Plan, separated bike lanes are planned. Additionally, to improve safety where the Spurline Trail crosses Union, a secondary crossing is planned that allows trail users to cross using the signal lights at Union and Moore.

Project updates will be posted in the News feed. and the current progress of the project is noted in the Project Timeline. The page will also be open to public comments for limited time periods, typically following the release of design information. Please check back often or sign up to follow the project to receive email updates.

  • CLOSED: This survey has concluded.

    Two primary design alternatives have been developed for Union Street:

    Alternative 1 – new cycling infrastructure (bike lanes) 

    Alternative 2 – pedestrian-focused

    Alternative 1 includes pedestrian sidewalks and one-way bike lanes between King Street and Bowman Street, with three possible sub-alternatives for the area between Bowman Street and Moore Avenue, where there is more road space.

    Alternative 2 has been developed as a “pedestrian-focused” corridor, with wider sidewalks and boulevards. There are no dedicated bike lanes as part of this design, and as a result, nearby properties will be less impacted compared to Alternative 1. Instead, cyclists would be directed to a yet-to-be determined parallel route, to be identified in the coming update to the city’s Transportation Master Plan.

    Details on all Alternative 1 options and Alternative 2 are available in the News feed, under First public information and consultation. Detailed plans for all options are available in the Project Library, in the Design Alternatives Technical Drawings folder.


    The survey will remain open until October 6, 2020.
