Ospika Boulevard between Davis Road and CN Centre will see some traffic disruptions for this year’s Sikh Vaisakhi Parade on Saturday.
The City said the parade will start at around 10:00 a.m. from the Guru Nanak Darbar Sikh Gurudwara at 4298 Davis Road, and continue along Davis Road and north bound on Ospika Boulevard arriving at the CN Centre parking lot at around noon.
The parade will then follow the same route south bound at 2:00 p.m., arriving back at the temple at 4:00.
It added only one north bound lane of Ospika will be occupied by the parade while the second north bound lane will be kept open for the north bound traffic, with the south bound parade following the same structure.
The CN Centre parking lot will have free South Asian food, snacks, soft drinks, and speeches by the dignitaries, and expect about 2500 participants to march in this parade.
The City is asking for patience during the event, and to choose an alternate route or in emergencies advise the flag person so the parade can be stopped to accommodate your needs.
