- Either a southbound or northbound lane of 83 Street will be closed overnight from approximately 9:00pm through about 6:00am.
- The lane will be closed in segments to accommodate work areas about 1 to 2 blocks long.
- The work will occur in segments between 82 Avenue (Whyte Ave) and 90 Avenue and will change location as work progresses.
