Why are we doing this?
We know these closures can have an impact on your travel, which is why we try to keep them as minimally disruptive as possible. That’s also why they’re so important – because doing preventative work and maintenance now can ensure we’re providing Calgarians with a safe, reliable, and efficient transit system.
Some work can be completed while keeping the trains on track, but there are certain projects that are just too big, or can’t share the space safely while trains are in service, and they require fully closing off sections of the line. Occasionally, a power cut is required to carry out specific work, which also means we need to close the line to train travel.
This weekend, we have a number of repair and maintenance projects on the list, including:
- Inspections and maintenance work in the tunnels
- Station repair work, cleaning, and inspections
- Roof repairs at Shaganappi Point
- Electrical work
- and other projects, as time allows.
Thank you for your patience during these closures!
