  • Metro Line Fact Sheet – Operations
    METRO LINE FACT SHEET – OPERATIONS For the first time in Edmonton, two different LRT lines are operating on the same set of tracks. The Capital Line continues to operate between Century Park Station and Clareview Station, while the Metro Line is designed to operate between Health Sciences Station and the new NAIT Station. LRT passengers will be able to change between the Capital Line and the Metro Line anywhere between Health Sciences Station and NAIT Station. SIGNALLING SYSTEM Light rail systems operate according to a few basic principles, including ensuring enough space between trains for the system to operate safely. Edmonton’s original LRT system, the Capital Line, has used a fixed-block signalling system, which divides the track into defined blocks and ensures there is always at least one empty block between trains. A new signalling system is being installed to manage train movements on both the Metro and Capital Lines. The communication-based train control signaling system that the Metro Line uses is a type of moving-block system, which maintains a block of space around each train rather than a block of space between each train. This allows ETS to safely tighten up the spacing between trains so they can run more frequently. It has taken the contractor much longer than anticipated to deliver the new signalling system, which has delayed the opening of the Metro Line. STAGED IMPLEMENTATION The City has developed an interim solution in order to open the Metro Line to public service as soon as possible: Fixed Block vs. Moving Block Signalling In the short term, Metro Line trains will run every 15 minutes between Century Park and NAIT.

  • News Release
    Metro Line to open September 6 New LRT extension brings changes to transit service and traffic patterns The Metro Line LRT extension will open to public service on Sunday, September 6, 2015. The Metro Line is the first spur line from Edmonton’s existing LRT. It provides a new LRT connection between Churchill Station downtown and many neighbourhoods, educational institutions, commercial centres and health care facilities including NAIT, MacEwan University, Kingsway Mall and the Royal Alexandra Hospital. The Metro Line is expected to bring more than 13,000 new passengers to Edmonton’s LRT network every weekday. “On behalf of the City, I’d like to thank the people of Edmonton for their patience, and welcome everyone aboard the Metro Line,” said Transportation Services General Manager Dorian Wandzura. “While this project has faced many challenges we are opening Edmonton’s new LRT extension to public service in time for the start of the 2015-2016 school year.” The $755 million Metro Line came in approximately $90 million under budget, for a total project cost of $665 million. For the first time in the Edmonton’s history two separate LRT lines are sharing the same set of tracks. Due to ongoing challenges related to integrating an advanced communication-based train control signalling system with the pre-existing LRT signalling system, the City is taking a staged approach to opening the Metro Line to public service. At first, Metro Line trains will offer LRT service every 15 minutes between Churchill Station and NAIT Station using a 25 km/h speed restriction. Once the speed restriction is lifted and the signalling system is fully operational, Metro Line trains will offer 10 minute service between Churchill and NAIT.

  • Ice District and Stantec Reach for the Sky with Start of Superstructure
    ICE DISTRICT AND STANTEC REACH FOR THE SKY WITH START OF SUPERSTRUCTURE New Stantec Tower superstructure to become tallest building in Edmonton EDMONTON – August 4, 2016 – Today, ICE District Properties Joint Venture and global design firm, Stantec, are celebrating the beginning of ICE District’s newest skyscraper – Stantec Tower. Once complete, this superstructure will become the tallest building in Edmonton and part of one of the largest mixed-use projects in Canada. The 66-storey tower will have 28 storeys of office space and approximately 481 residential units. It is set to open in two phases - fall 2018 for the office and fall 2019 for the residential component. The building has been fully designed, engineered and project managed by Stantec, demonstrating its world-class capabilities and experience. The new tower will consolidate more than 1,700 Stantec employees into one centralized location in the heart of Edmonton’s downtown revitalization project. When the organization moves in fall 2018, Stantec will occupy 19 floors and close to 460,000 square feet of the new tower. Targeting a LEED Gold certification upon completion, Stantec Tower will be a state-of-the-art, 820 foot high (250 metres) structure that will be an integral component of ICE District. Located at the corner of 102nd Street and 103rd Avenue, the tower will include iconic design elements, including a lobby that opens into the vibrant public plaza providing convenient access to Rogers Place and Ford Hall. “Today’s celebration marks another exciting development built to provide Edmontonians a great place to work, live and play,” said Glen Scott, Senior Vice President, Real Estate, Katz Group.

    Ground characteristics for the design of the Edmonton North LRT Twin Tunnels David Elwood1, C. Derek Martin1 & Jacob Dafni2 Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering 1 University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering 2 University of Washington, Seattle, Washington, United States ABSTRACT A comprehensive geotechnical investigation was undertaken as part of the detailed design of the City of Edmonton’s North LRT expansion. The investigation included a series of in-situ testholes including a number of seismic CPTu holes and a pre-bored pressuremeter hole. The strength and deformation parameters obtained from the current investigation were then compared to the findings of a number of historical investigations associated with previous LRT extensions as well as several heavy civil projects located throughout the City of Edmonton. RÉSUMÉ Une étude géotechnique complète a été entreprise dans le cadre de la conception détaillée de l’expansion nord du réseau de train léger sur rail (LRT) de la ville d’Edmonton. L’étude comprend une série de forages d’essai in-situ dont quelques essais de pénétration au cône sismique CPTu et un essai au pressiomètre préforé. Les paramètres de résistance et de déformation obtenus dans cette étude sont comparés aux résultats de plusieurs études antérieures concernant des expansions passées du LRT ainsi que plusieurs grands projets de génie civil réalisés à travers la ville d’Edmonton. 1 INTRODUCTION (CU) and Consolidated Drained (CD) triaxial tests.
