2023 Robert Service Way slide

Robert Service Way from the softball diamonds to the traffic circle on 4th Avenue will be closed until further notice following an early morning landslide on Saturday, April 8.

Portions of the Millennium Trail, the Upper Escarpment Trail and trails along the lower escarpment will also be closed as crews work to assess the sites and identify any further risk areas.

During an assessment on April 11, crews identified a number of new tension cracks and the slope continues to show signs of instability. The land survey is also showing movement in an area of concern.

Motorists should continue to adjust travel times.

Our Parks department has cleared the access point through Robert Service Campground for cyclists wishing to commute downtown through Riverdale using the Rotary Pedestrian Bridge, or just take a spin out on the highway. If you're new to this informal entrance, it's 95 metres south of the main campground entrance on Robert Service Way. The campground is a construction site, so please stay on the trail.

We want to thank the public for their patience. More information will follow as it becomes available.
