Highway 1 Moosomin Functional Planning Study

A study is underway for Highways 1 and 8 in Moosomin for a future interchange and a new bypass in the area.

This study will identify land that will be required for future highway improvements. It also creates clarity for future development opportunities.

Background

The Highway 1 and Highway 8 intersection serves Moosomin, the RM of Moosomin and other communities in the area.

The Ministry of Highways continues to work on safety and capacity improvements, and your feedback is vital to help guide future safety improvements.

This study is about identifying land to be preserved for the future. No date has been set for any potential safety improvements.

Options

All the options will improve access to Moosomin from Highway 1, while reducing the number of collisions and limiting severity. A Highway 8 bypass will reduce the number of trucks travelling through the Town of Moosomin.

All four options have certain key characteristics:

  • Highway 8 relocated west
  • An interchange and a Reduced Collision U-Turn (RCUT) are constructed on Highway 1. Learn more about RCUT intersections.

We want to hear from you!

Option 1 – West Interchange

This option involves constructing an interchange at Highway 1 and the realigned Highway 8 west of Moosomin. An RCUT intersection is constructed at Highway 1 and the East Access Road.

Option 2 – Main Street Interchange

This option involves constructing an interchange at Highway 1 and Main Street. To accommodate the Main Street interchange while avoiding impacts on existing development in Moosomin, Highway 1 realignment is required. An RCUT intersection is constructed at Highway 1 and the realigned Highway 8.

Option 3 – East Access Interchange

This option involves constructing an interchange at Highway 1 and the East Access Road. To accommodate the interchange while avoiding impacts on existing development in Moosomin, Highway 1 realignment is required. An RCUT intersection is constructed at Highway 1 and the realigned Highway 8.

Option 4 – Wright Road Interchange

This option involves constructing an interchange at Highway 1 and Wright Road. To accommodate the interchange while avoiding impacts on existing development in Moosomin, Highway 1 realignment is required. An RCUT intersection is constructed at Highway 1 and the realigned Highway 8.

Survey

The survey is now closed.

Next Steps

  • Evaluate survey feedback
  • Determine preferred option and refine design
  • Virtual Public Engagement #2
  • Final report
  • There is currently no timeline for construction
