At over 38 acres of land and a total of 15 lots available for retail services, it has the potential to be a lucrative business location, since there’s already a built-in potential customer base: from existing tenants and their business operations – their employees and their business colleagues who visit the park; and also from the general public whose travel routes may bring them near or to the Park. Services such as a gas station, car wash and restaurants will likely generate high volumes of traffic, being essential services that are conveniently located for customers. 4 Aurum Gateway at Aurum Energy Park Aurum Gateway at Aurum Energy Park 5 N TO FORT SASKATCHEWAN & FORT MCMURRAY HIGHWAY 21 137 AVE NE For Sale Pembina Pipelines GMCC Pembina Pipelines EBS GMCC Environmental WTI Reem Solutions Rentals Transportation For Ltd.

Macleod Trail, as we know it today, has remained much the same since the 1960’s. It was, and continues to be, characterized by low-rise buildings accompanied by paved parking lots and poor infrastructure for pedestrians. The development of low-density land use and long distances between destinations or areas of interest has encouraged driving as the primary way for people to get to and from key destinations along Macleod Trail. What will Macleod Trail look like Because people will be living within walking or cycling distances to businesses and major activity centres over the next 50 years?

  • Better Yellowhead Access Coming to Sherwood Park
    Road construction report July 5, 2013 Better Yellowhead access coming to Sherwood Park Preparation for a new Yellowhead Highway overpass will detour access to Sherwood Drive for three months starting July 10 at 9 a.m. From July 10 to October 10, the entrance and exit ramps between eastbound Yellowhead Trail (Highway 16) and Sherwood Drive will be closed as crews relocate sanitary lines and conduct earthwork in preparation for a new interchange being built to increase access and safety for motorists around the community of Sherwood Park. Full closure of these ramps will allow quick, efficient and safe work to be completed. Sherwood Drive will be closed north of Emerald Drive. Two alternate Yellowhead exits are available for those entering or leaving Sherwood Park: Broadmoor Boulevard to the west and Clover Bar Road to the east. Commuters are encouraged to check Yellowhead traffic volume near Clover Bar Road using camera feeds provided by 511 Alberta. The speed limit on Yellowhead will be maintained at 110km/h where traffic will continue to flow freely. Drivers are reminded to obey all flag persons, signs and signals. Fines for speeding are doubled in construction zones when workers are present. When completed in late 2015, the new Sherwood Drive interchange will provide commuters with a new overpass over Yellowhead with four access ramps, an improvement from the one (southbound) exit and one (eastbound) entrance. This will enhance safety and capacity in preparation for increased traffic expected on Yellowhead Trail when the Edmonton Ring Road is completed in fall 2016. Using Alberta’s P3 model for highways allows Northeast Anthony Henday Drive to be finished in 2016, three years earlier than through conventional delivery and at a savings of $370 million for taxpayers.

  • A Comprehensive Guide to the Alberta Oil Sands
    A COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE TO THE ALBERTA OIL SANDS UNDERSTANDING THE ENVIRONMENTAL AND HUMAN IMPACTS , EXPORT IMPLICATIONS , AND POLITICAL , ECONOMIC , AND INDUSTRY INFLUENCES Michelle Mech May 2011 (LAST REVISED MARCH 2012) A COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE TO THE ALBERTA OIL SANDS UNDERSTANDING THE ENVIRONMENTAL AND HUMAN IMPACTS , EXPORT IMPLICATIONS , AND POLITICAL , ECONOMIC , AND INDUSTRY INFLUENCES ABOUT THIS REPORT Just as an oil slick can spread far from its source, the implications of Oil Sands production have far reaching effects. Many people only read or hear about isolated aspects of these implications. Media stories often provide only a ‘window’ of information on one specific event and detailed reports commonly center around one particular facet. This paper brings together major points from a vast selection of reports, studies and research papers, books, documentaries, articles, and fact sheets relating to the Alberta Oil Sands. It is not inclusive. The objective of this document is to present sufficient information on the primary factors and repercussions involved with Oil Sands production and export so as to provide the reader with an overall picture of the scope and implications of Oil Sands current production and potential future development, without perusing vast volumes of publications. The content presents both basic facts, and those that would supplement a general knowledge base of the Oil Sands and this document can be utilized wholly or in part, to gain or complement a perspective of one or more particular aspect(s) associated with the Oil Sands. The substantial range of Oil Sands- related topics is covered in brevity in the summary. This paper discusses environmental, resource, and health concerns, reclamation, viable alternatives, crude oil pipelines, and carbon capture and storage.

  • Prioritization of Arterial Roads and Primary Highways Projects
    6. 4 Prioritization of Arterial Roads and Primary . Highways Projects Level of Service and Capital Budget Information Recommendation That the April 3, 2018, Urban Form and Corporate Strategic Development report CR_4227, be received for information. Previous Council/Committee Action At the November 1, 2016, Executive Committee meeting, the following motion was passed: That Administration provide: a. a report outlining the breakdown by quadrant of infrastructure demand/capacity for arterial roads and primary highways in poor and very poor condition. b. a rating (A, B, C, D, F) for intersections on major arterials and primary highways categorized by quadrant c. some analysis on how this information would inform the prioritization of arterial road addition and widening projects for the next couple of budget cycles and return to Committee in the first quarter of 2018. 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. Vriend April 3, 2018 – Urban Form and Corporate Strategic Development CR 4227 Page 1 of 8 Prioritization of Arterial Roads and Primary Highways Projects intersections in the city would require additional investigation to determine the cause of congestion and the benefits of additional investment in improvements.

  • 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. The Alberta government signed a 34-year contract with the Capital City Link General Partnership to design, build, operate, and partially finance Northeast Anthony Henday Drive. The public-private partnership (P3) contract is worth $1.81 billion in 2012 dollars, to be paid over the term of the contract, and follows a P3 selection process which began in March 2011. This is a savings of $370 million, compared to the estimated cost of $2.18 billion using traditional delivery.
