MooseJaw

As of yesterday, the parking stalls on the west side of Main Street North from Ross to Saskatchewan Street have been removed by the City of Moose Jaw, in a bid to improve traffic flow and safety.

The City says that the move will ensure sufficient clearance of all four lanes of travel, noting that parking on the east side of Main Street is already prohibited north of Oxford Street East.

Letters have been sent to affected homeowners and businesses in the area.

It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Elsie Elizabeth Graff, who passed away peacefully, surrounded by her family, at the age of 91 years on Friday, March 28th, 2025.
