  • PIGEON LAKE, ALBERTA …A Brief History
    PIGEON LAKE, ALBERTA …a brief history Pigeon Lake is one of the largest and most extensively used recreational waters in Alberta. The lake covers an area of 96.7 km2 (37.3 sq. mi), and has a maximum depth of 9.1 m (30 ft.) It is an early tributary of the Battle River, connected through the Pigeon Lake Creek with no large water inflows. It is served by hundreds of fresh water streams and artesian wells, with levels highly dependent on snow and rain conditions. The water freezes over in November of each year and over the past half century has thawed to open water as early as April 16 in 2016 and as late as May 28th in 2013. Historical records detail a large artesian well on the northeast corner of the lake used for fresh drinking water by Nakoda tribes and the Algonquin Cree who travelled the region as early as 1725. Anthony Henday, one of the first of the British explorers, travelled the area as an emissary for the Hudson Bay Company in 1754 when the lake was called “hmi-hmoo” by the Cree Indians. The name in English meant "Woodpecker Lake." In 1858 the name was changed to Pigeon Lake in recognition of Passenger Pigeons, considered one of the prettiest doves in the world. They were said to have numbered in the millions and unfortunately were hunted to extinction. In the mid-19th century Pigeon Lake became a gathering place for First Nations people from numerous tribes and therefore a desirable spot for the location of both a Hudson Bay Company Trading Post and a Christian Mission.

The survey was structured similar to the survey undertaken by the City of Calgary in 2000. The intent of the study is to provide planners with information to assess the transportation needs of both Alberta Transportation and the City of Edmonton. Roadside interviews were conducted between September and November 2001 at 24 sites on provincial highways entering the study area (Exhibit 1.2.1 Section 1.2) between the hours of 8:00 AM and 4:00 PM. In all just, over 6,500 truckers transporting commodities into and out of the Edmonton Region were interviewed entering and exiting the region on various provincial highways. The information gathered from the survey was scaled up to represent daily truck and commodity movement into and out of the study area. Findings of the study indicate: D Almost 16,000 trucks enter or exit the region on a typical weekday on a 24-hour basis; D Approximately 16,200 Commodity trips are made on a typical weekday on a 24- hour basis; D The highways that carry the majority of the trips into and out of the region include Highway 2 South (20%), Highway 16W (13%), Highway 43 (10%), Highway
