As planning continues for the Westside Irrigation Rehabilitation Project – the Government of Saskatchewan will be hosting a pair of public information sessions to provide important information about the project, engage with the community, encourage open dialogue and gather valuable feedback to shape the future of the project.
The sessions will give the attendees a chance to learn about the scope of the Westside Irrigation Rehabilitation Project, what work is underway, any updates about the project and its anticipated benefits as well as the steps that are being taken to protect the environment while developing the project. Participants will be asked to share their thoughts, ask questions and provide input on a variety of topics.
The public information sessions are a critical component of this project, as they provide an avenue for open dialogue and feedback. The feedback gathered will be integral in refining the project design and addressing any potential concerns. The format of these sessions is designed to be interactive and informative, creating a platform for meaningful engagement.
The Westside Irrigation Rehabilitation Project aims to create approximately 100,000 irrigated acres by modernizing and expanding decades-old infrastructure. This scope includes updating 50 kilometers of underutilized canal infrastructure, building a new pump station and completing the Conquest Reservoir near the Village of Conquest. It’s an essential step toward creating water security to an area that has traditionally not had access to high-quality water resources.
Engineering and design work is already underway, with completion expected later this year. Major construction on the project is targeted for late 2026.
