Bike Lanes and Road Diet Coming To Station Street and City Road

The City of Saint John is excited to announce upcoming improvements to Station Street and City Road that will enhance safety and active transportation options for all road users.

Starting the week of October 13, (weather permitting), dedicated bike lanes will be painted on both sides of Station Street and City Road, stretching from Smythe Street to the Stanley Street active transportation bridge. These enhancements are part of the Trans Canada Trail and support the City’s long-term transportation strategy, MoveSJ, which aims to create a more connected and sustainable urban mobility network.

In addition to the new bike lanes, a Road Diet will be implemented on both streets. This means a reduction from four vehicle lanes to three, helping to:

  • Maintain good traffic flow for motorists
  • Encourage safer driving speeds
  • Improve pedestrian safety
  • Create space for the new bike lanes

These changes reflect the City’s commitment to building a safer, more inclusive transportation system that supports walking, cycling, and driving.

We appreciate your patience during this transition and encourage everyone to explore these new routes once complete.
