Civic Address Registry
The Civic Address Registry (CAR) is a province-wide standardized system of identifying and locating properties, by establishing unique access point locations.
The Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency (SPSA) encourages all communities to utilize the voluntary program to assist emergency responders such as police, fire and emergency medical services locate Saskatchewan residents in need quickly.
Urban and rural addressing systems are based on an access point on a road network. For urban addressing, an address is typically created from the street and avenue road network.
A rural address can be identified by the range road and township road network.
Civic Address information is managed through an online database and web mapping application. To access the online system, please visit www.saskaddress.ca.
For more information contact the Provincial Helpline at 1-844-407-0077 or email support@saskaddress.ca.
CAR Signage Incentive Project: To better identify locations, the CAR Signage Incentive Project is providing a subsidy to CAR’s participating communities that will cover the cost of road and civic address signs. There is no cost to apply.
To get involved, send your name, the municipality’s name and note that you are interested in the project to car@gov.sk.ca by December 31, 2024.
