The Regina Bypass is a four-lane twinned highway connector road in Regina, Saskatchewan. The 44.3-kilometre (27.5 mi) route connects Highway 1 (the Trans-Canada Highway) with Highway 11, forming a partial ring road around the city of Regina.
Phase one, east of Regina from Balgonie to Highway 33, finished on-schedule in October 2017.[2] The second phase of the bypass opened to traffic on October 29, 2019.[3] The project, slated to cost $1.8 billion overall, was the largest single infrastructure project in the history of Saskatchewan.[4] The bypass is owned on behalf of the public by the Ministry of Highways and Infrastructure with design, construction, operations, and long-term maintenance performed by the Regina Bypass Partners.
