Restoration work on 112 Avenue bridge over Wayne Gretzky Drive begins this week

Edmonton's 112 Avenue bridge looking north on Wayne Gretzky Drive in July 2024.

The work on the 112 Avenue bridge will see workers construct a new shared pathway on the north side of the east-west bridge and address deteriorating elements of it to extend its service life by 20 years.

The bridge will stay open during the renovation, with traffic reduced to one through lane and one turning lane in each direction.

Work on the bridge will stop for the winter and resume next spring. The project is slated to finish by the end of next year.
