  • 4 Avenue Flyover: both lanes will reopen.
  • Crowchild Trail N.W.: all lanes will reopen.
  • Mission Bridge: two-way traffic will continue with one lane in each direction, and pedestrian and walking & wheeling access will remain open.
  • 17 Avenue S.E.: all lanes will be reopened between Deerfoot Trail and 19 St. S.E.
