Tables) - 1 - 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Executive Summary of the Business Opportunity Alberta Transportation (the “Department”) has received Alberta Government approval to proceed with procurement of the design, build, financing and operation (“DBFO”) of Northeast Anthony Henday Drive (the “Project”), being the northeast leg of the ring road for the City of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. The location of the Project in the context of the City of Edmonton is shown on Figure 1. The Project is described in detail in Section 2 of this Request for Qualifications (“RFQ”). In summary, the Project consists of an approximately 27 kilometre divided highway consisting of portions with 6 lanes and portions with 8 lanes plus additional basic and auxiliary lanes, 8 interchanges (includes two systems interchanges), 9 grade separations/flyovers, 6 railway grade separations, twin river bridge structures, modifications to existing roadways and structures and additional pre-grading for future interchanges (see Figure 2). The Project will be procured as a DBFO. The RFQ phase of the procurement will be followed by a Request for Proposals (“RFP”), which will culminate in a DBFO Agreement. The procurement process and the DBFO Agreement will be based in large measure upon the successful processes and DBFO Agreements realized in the Edmonton Southeast Anthony Henday Drive, Calgary Northeast Stoney Trail, Edmonton Northwest Anthony Henday Drive, and Calgary Southeast Stoney Trail DBFOs that closed in January 2005, February 2007, July 2008, and March 2010 respectively. The DBFO Agreement for the Project will award to the successful bidder responsibility to design, construct and partially finance the Project, and to operate and maintain it, together with the bridge structures carrying Baseline Road over Anthony Henday Drive and Whitemud Drive over Anthony Henday Drive, for a term of 30 years following opening of the road. The Department will provide partial funding for the Project in an amount currently anticipated to be between 50% and 70% of the successful bidder’s capital cost of the Project. The successful bidder will supply private financing for the balance of the capital cost of the Project. The Department intends that the RFP will be issued on or about May 13, 2011, that final bids in response to the RFP will be required on or about March 14, 2012, and that the DBFO Agreement will be entered into on or before May 16, 2012. (See Project Schedule in Section 2.4 below.) 1.2 Background Alberta is an excellent place to work, live and do business. The City of Edmonton and the City of Calgary are two of the six largest cities in Canada with metropolitan area populations exceeding one million each. - 2 - The Department is responsible for the operation of 25,000 kilometres of paved and 5,000 kilometres of gravel highway network in the Province, including 3,800 bridge structures. This highway network has a depreciated value of about $20 billion. The Department is planning to expand its transportation network throughout the Province and to expand the ring roads around Edmonton and Calgary. The Project completes the ring road around Edmonton. The Project will be a vital transportation corridor for the movement of goods through Alberta and a key

Executive Summary This report outlines the status and performance of aspects of the road network and how improvements to the network are coordinated between the land development industry and the City. Monitoring indicates that the majority of Edmonton’s arterial road network and primary highways are operating within design capacity, and 94 percent of arterial road intersections in the city are rated A through E. This means they are operating within an acceptable level of service. Twenty intersections (six percent) are rated F. This means they are congested during peak hours. Some of the F rated intersections are in new growth areas where the road network is not fully developed. Other F rated ROUTING - Urban Planning Committee | DELEGATION - P. Ohm/D.

  • News Release
    News release July 16, 2012 Construction digs-in on final leg of Edmonton ring road Final leg of Anthony Henday Drive set to open to traffic in 2016 Edmonton ... The finish line on the Edmonton ring road is in sight with the final northeast leg of the Anthony Henday Drive scheduled to open in fall 2016. “It is very rewarding to turn sod on a project that is so far reaching. This new road improves our quality of life, supports a changing and expanding population and furthers Alberta’s economic growth,” said Minister of Transportation Ric McIver. “This is an exciting step in moving toward the long-range vision of the Edmonton Ring Road that began in the 1970s.” More than 50,000 Albertans use the Henday each day. The ring road, once completed, will change the way residents in the Capital Region connect with the people and services that matter to them – reducing commute times and traffic congestion. It will also dramatically benefit industry that uses the freeway as a vital route in all four directions, getting our products to market more quickly and efficiently.

  • Study for the Ring Roads
    Intelligent Transportation Systems Study for the Edmonton and Calgary Ring Roads Terms of Reference Highway Policy and Planning Branch 3rd Floor, 4999-98 Avenue Edmonton, AB T6B 2X3 March 1, 2004 Background Alberta Transportation has developed a strategic vision for implementing Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) to improve the safety, capacity, and efficiency of the provincial transportation system. The ITS Strategic Plan, dated September 2000, provides a vision for the future of ITS in Alberta’s provincial highway system and outlines strategies for Alberta Transportation to develop and deploy these technologies. The ring roads in the cities of Edmonton and Calgary are top priority projects in Alberta, and they are integral components of the Trans-Canada Highway and the Trans-Canada Highway Yellowhead Route through the province. Deployment of ITS technologies will further enhance the safe and efficient operation of the ring roads in the two cities. Edmonton Ring Road – Anthony Henday Drive A major part of the Edmonton ring road, also known as Anthony Henday Drive (AHD), is located inside the city limits of Edmonton. By agreement with the City, Alberta Transportation is responsible for funding and developing AHD. AHD is part of Alberta Transportation’s initiative to provide a high standard highway trade corridor linking Alberta to the United States and Mexico. In addition, the roadway forms an important part of Edmonton’s overall transportation system and is included in the City’s Transportation Master Plan, which addresses future transportation needs to the year 2020. Growth in the Edmonton metropolitan area will reach a population of 1.17 million by 2020 with significant traffic growth at the same time.
