A downtown Winnipeg skywalk connecting the RBC Convention Centre to the Delta Winnipeg hotel remains closed as structural work continues.

The skywalk was closed on April 9 when the city noticed there was a need for an assessment of the connection to the convention centre.

Engineering firms are designing and installation temporary supports (shoring) for the skywalk. Once complete, the final design and construction of a permanent repair will be initiated.

The city will provide further updates on the Carlton Street structure as they become available.
