The City of Lethbridge, Alberta, started utility maintenance on Southgate Blvd S today, March 16, 2026. This work is happening near the Rona entrance and will affect how residents move through the area for several days.

Workers have closed the inside westbound lane on the boulevard to stay safe while they complete the repairs. A section of the north sidewalk is also blocked off to pedestrians during this time.

Maintenance is expected to wrap up by March 21, 2026, as long as the weather stays clear. If conditions change, the timeline for reopening the lane and sidewalk might be adjusted.

For those looking to avoid delays, the city provides updates on detours and sidewalk access through its WebMAP portal. This tool helps community members plan their routes around active maintenance sites and construction zones.
