A block of Kindersley residents will be forced into some traffic delays to start the week.
Coleman Crescent in Kindersley is being changed to "local access only" for at least a few days as service work is completed at the site of the new Kid Academy Earling Learning Centre in town along Thomson Drive, the Town of Kindersley announced Monday night. They are completing water/sanitary sewer service tie-ins for the facility and the local access designation is expected for a few days.
The residential road leading into Thomson Drive is being limited to one lane of traffic, and vehicles are asked to slow down when in the area and are being warned that traffic delays could be noticed until the project is complete.
The Kids Academy ELC is set to be a much-needed addition to the community with space for 90 children, and another 30 for before and after school. Not only will it give kids a place to learn, but it will also create jobs with over 20 both full and part time positions joining casual work too.
The community has stepped up to help make the future facility a reality. Back in October the Kindersley and District Co-op gave and overwhelmingly generous $250,000 towards the project, and then another $100,000 donation from Synergy Credit Union in April.
Expected to open in the fall of 2026, groundbreaking on the new facility will take place this spring.
