The project formerly known as the Polson Greenway Phase 3 is being renamed to the 29th Street Utilities Upgrade Project to better reflect what is actually happening with it. Water and sewer utilities under the section of road between 43 Avenue and 41 Avenue along 29th Street are about fifty years old and need to be updated. During the upgrade, the City will put in a multi-use path along this section to make it easier for pedestrians and cyclists to reach Polson Park. The design for the project is complete and will go out to tender at the end of February.
