Downtown Renewal - Wyndham St. and St. George's Square
A sub-project of the Downtown Infrastructure Renewal Program
The Phase 1: Wyndham Street North Reconstruction project is the first detailed design and construction project in the Downtown Infrastructure Renewal Program. This project was informed by the Wyndham Street Environmental Assessment (EA) and is the first phase identified in the upcoming Capital Implementation Plan (which outlines the construction sequencing).
This project runs in tandem with construction planning and implementation for the fulsome Downtown Infrastructure Renewal Program, and the study and design process for the Macdonell Bridge and Allan's Dam structure project.
Construction along Wellington Street East occurred in the summer of 2025 to lay the groundwork for new infrastructure along Wyndham N. and gas and power utility upgrades have been happening in sections of Downtown to prepare for the larger Construction which began March 30, 2025 and is moving through Wyndham street over the course of the next four months. Construction areas will re-open in stages as roads are complete to a level to allow traffic. All Wyndham Street construction is expected to complete in 2028.

Area of study
This part of the project focuses on the reconstruction of Wyndham Street North corridor, from approximately Farquhar Street to Woolwich Street.

What we did
We asked for your fresh ideas for the street design options in the summer of 2023
The community shared their ideas on the cards below and took time to review and "like" ideas shared by their neighbours.
Read our summary of engagement and what we heard in the summer of 2023 to learn about this part of the process and how we are including the community in the design.
