There is work planned for Main Street South, in front of the Dauphin Marketplace Mall, starting this summer. The City of Dauphin has been working with the province on the Main Street South reconstruction project, with multiple planned expansions.
According to the provincial government, the plans will include:
- Extending the four-lane section of Main Street South;
- Adding another service road to improve access management; and
- A traffic light at the mall entrance.
Manitoba Transportation and Infrastructure is nearing completion of the detailed design and land acquisition phases and expects tendering to follow this spring/early summer.
Construction is scheduled to start this summer, but won't be finished until next summer. Until the plans are finalized, it's not known how the construction will affect traffic in the area.
