Robert Service Way Escarpment Update #3

Commuters should continue to anticipate delays in travel time and increased traffic congestion due to the Robert Service Way closure.

We recognize the inconvenience of this closure, especially during peak hours around Two Mile Hill Road and Range Road, and we’re exploring options to improve traffic conditions.

Please allow for more travel time, and consider carpooling, using transit, choosing active transportation, or working from home, where possible.

Your safety is important to us, and road users are urged to be cautious and follow the rules of the road to prevent collisions. Please be aware of each other, be patient, and be kind.

The City is exploring mitigation and risk reduction measures to reopen Robert Service Way as soon as possible, but the risks of landslides are still too high.

The escarpment continues to show signs of movement, and residents are reminded of the importance of staying out of the areas that have been closed.

As part of its comprehensive monitoring plan, the City has started outreach to residents living along the escarpment. While there aren’t signs of unreasonable risk to buildings at this time, this outreach includes updates on current conditions and information around evacuations in the event conditions change.

We thank the public for their continued patience and cooperation during this time.

We encourage residents to reach out if they have any questions or concerns through our Ask a Question section.
