Calgary pedestrians and cyclists can ‘walk and wheel’ on Memorial Drive over long weekend
The eastbound lanes of Memorial Drive will be closed to traffic over the August long weekend to allow for pedestrians and cyclists to use the space.
The closures began as a precaution to allow for extra space along the city’s river paths during the COVID-19 pandemic, and quickly became popular amongst cyclists and joggers. The damage has also resulted in reduced space on the Peace Bridge due to barriers along each side; cyclists are also being asked to dismount when using the river crossing.
