  • Latest Twinned Section on Highway 43 Improves Safety for Motorists Divided Roadway Between Green Court and Sangudo Opens to Traffic
    Managing growth pressures September 20, 2007 Latest twinned section on Highway 43 improves safety for motorists Divided roadway between Green Court and Sangudo opens to traffic Mayerthorpe... Motorists travelling between Green Court and Sangudo will enjoy 18.5 kilometres of newly divided highway, as the province officially opens the latest twinned section on Highway 43 at a cost of $22.3 million. “Twinning Highway 43 between Edmonton and Grande Prairie is nearly complete, providing a safer and more efficient highway for one of Alberta’s major economic corridors,” said Luke Ouellette, Minister of Infrastructure and Transportation. “By twinning this important stretch of the North-South Trade Corridor, Alberta is investing in the economic future of the province.” Highway 43 forms the northwest leg of Alberta’s North-South Trade Corridor and runs 432 kilometres from its junction with Highway 16 west of Edmonton to Grande Prairie. The Alberta government has invested $1.3 billion to develop the North-South Trade Corridor since 1998, including $566 million since 1998 to twin Highway 43. “As a long-time supporter of the twinning of Highway 43, I’m pleased this very busy section of highway will be safer for motorists and will help support economic development throughout the region,” said George VanderBurg, MLA for Whitecourt-Ste. Anne. Two additional Highway 43 projects are currently underway. Final paving of 34 kilometres of previously twinned Highway 43 between Sangudo and Glenevis is expected to be finished by the end of September at a cost of $9.5 million. An additional 35 kilometres of Highway 43 twinning will also open to traffic later this fall, weather permitting, between Asplund Creek and Iosegun Lake at a cost of $46 million.

The report presents and describes information collected through 2016 field investigations and a background review including: land use, shore type, shoreline modifications, riparian vegetation, aquatic vegetation, phytoplankton, fisheries, wetlands, wildlife and birds. We have addressed the comments provided by Living Lakes Canada in this final version of the report. Lac La Biche is a large, moderately developed lake with numerous modifications associated with development such as docks, retaining walls and boat launches. The lake supports a mixed fishery that is intensively monitored due to recent declines, and is impacted by the annual occurrence of blue-green algae blooms. Lac La Biche is naturally eutrophic and blue-green algal blooms have occurred for several years but cultural eutrophication likely impacts the size and abundance of such blooms. Wetlands are abundant around the lake, especially within the floodplain of the La Biche River, and aquatic vegetation, especially submerged vegetation, is also common in nearshore areas of the lake, providing habitat and food for a variety of fish and other wildlife.
