The construction will mean Edmonton Transit will have to make some changes and accommodations to bus service.
Routes 3, 14, 100, 109, 161, 162, 308 and 560 will be detoured off 97 Street. All those routes (expect 560) will run along 95 Street instead, between Jasper Avenue and 103 A Avenue.
For route 560, the morning service will detour on 100 Street and afternoon service will run on 95 Street.
Some St. Albert Transit routes will also be affected.
