WINNIPEG — Better timing of traffic lights should improve the flow of vehicles on four major routes by the end of the year, city officials said today.

By the end of this year, synchronization and upgrades to 65 signalled intersections will be completed along the following four major routes:

  • Bishop Grandin Boulevard (Lagimodiere Boulevard to Kenaston Boulevard);
  • Lagimodiere Boulevard (north city limit to the south city limit);
  • Main Street (Higgins Avenue to the north city limit);
  • Pembina Highway (Osborne Street/Corydon Avenue to the south city limit).

Synchronization of traffic signals has been completed on Lagimodiere Boulevard and Main Street. Pembina Highway is scheduled to be completed within the next few weeks. Synchronization of traffic signals on Bishop Grandin Boulevard will be done after Phase 2 of the Fort Garry Bridges Project is completed.
