Towing in Saskatoon: Circle Drive and the River Crossings

The South Saskatchewan River splits Saskatoon in two, so the first thing to tell us is which side of the river you're on. Add the nearest bridge or cross street, and we can get the right partner moving.

Circle Drive

Circle Drive is the ring road, and it carries both Highway 16 and Highway 11. Most of it is a full freeway. The exception is the stretch between Airport Drive and Millar Avenue, where you'll hit traffic lights and at-grade crossings. Between Millar Avenue and Avenue C North it drops to an arterial road with businesses along it. A stall at one of those lights is a tow call. Don't try to coast through.

In the southeast corner, Highways 11 and 16 meet at a cloverleaf. On a cloverleaf ramp, there's little room. If the car dies there, hazards on and stay belted in.

The rail crossings

Canadian Pacific tracks run close to downtown and cross main streets at grade: 3rd Avenue and Warman Road, Idylwyld Drive, 22nd Street, Avenue H, 20th Street and Avenue P. If you ever stall on the tracks, get out and away first. Then call 911 and us.

Saskatoon Street Rules and the Slow to 60 Law

You can park on any city street for up to 72 hours unless signs say otherwise. Cars that block street sweeping or a snow route get towed out of the way to a nearby street. The city can also boot and seize vehicles, from public or private property, for things like unpaid fines. Seized cars go to the Municipal Impound Lot at 150 Jonathon Avenue. Details are on the City of Saskatoon vehicle seizures page.

Out on the highway, Saskatchewan drivers must slow to 60 km/h to pass a tow truck stopped with amber or amber and blue lights flashing. It doesn't apply to oncoming traffic on a divided highway. It's in the SGI driver's handbook. And before a winter drive, check the Highway Hotline. "Travel Not Recommended" there means visibility under 250 m, or a road that could become impassable.
