A new underground connection under 99 Street in downtown Edmonton is nearing completion, linking Churchill LRT Station to the Station Lands development north of 104 Avenue.
According to the City's latest update, Ledcor is working on the final electrical, mechanical and architectural details inside the pedway, including lighting, tiling, ceiling finishes and signage. A new elevator is being installed at the tunnel entrance, and the public art installation is expected to be complete by the end of October. The project is anticipated to be complete by the end of 2026.
Drivers should expect construction nearby. In mid-October, crews closed a section of 99 Street north of 102A Avenue to vehicles to install a roadway contraction joint. The closure is expected to last until late November, weather permitting. Access to the City Hall Parkade is being maintained via 103A Avenue.
Construction began in March 2024. Earlier this year, crews finished the tunnel roof, connecting all six phases of the downtown pedway.
