From June 29 to August 30, the east side of Century Park Transit Centre will be closed to both pedestrians and vehicle traffic due to critically needed construction and repairs.
Travel delays, especially during peak hours, are likely to occur on several routes for the duration of construction. Routes 721, 722, and 729 are anticipated to experience the most delays.
Buses that regularly park on the east side of the transit centre will be required to park at relocated bus stops along 111 Street to accommodate construction. ETS is working to arrange the temporary bus stops at the Century Park Transit Centre to minimize rider inconvenience.
The following routes will be relocated to the Kiss and Ride (Bay P #4216) section along 111 Street:
- 56 West Edmonton Mall
- 709 Southgate
- 716 Leger
- 717 Leger
- 721 Rutherford
- 722 Allard
- 729 Leger
To accommodate space for all ETS buses during construction, some buses will need to use the grassy curb north of Century Park Transit Centre as a temporary stop. Asphalt platforms will be temporarily installed to make these spots universally accessible for riders. This temporary stop will be marked as #4217 - Century Park Transit Centre Bay Q. The following routes will be moved to this location:
- 1 Leduc
- 518 Mill Woods
- 707 Southgate
- 715 Leger
- On Demand Transit
