Drivers along Crescent Road West in Portage la Prairie face ongoing disruptions as the city ramps up reconstruction work on a key stretch between 4th Street SW and 12th Street SW.
The eastbound lane of Crescent Road West from 4th Street SW to 12th Street SW closes effective immediately as of Monday, July 14, 2025, allowing crews to begin underground work and drainage updates.
Starting Monday, July 21 at 8 a.m., both lanes in this section will be fully closed for major road reconstruction, expected to last until the end of the day Tuesday, September 2.
The full closure will require drivers to use detours, potentially causing traffic delays in the area.
This work is part of a multi-year project to improve Crescent Road’s durability and drainage, helping reduce potholes and enhance safety for drivers and residents.
