December 7, 2005 Province enjoys successful highway construction season Edmonton... Despite relatively wet, cool weather in many parts of Alberta this spring and summer, the province's highway system continued to expand and improve. The major portion of a successful highway construction season wrapped up in November. "Investing $660 million in Alberta's highway network is critical to the province's economy and ongoing prosperity," said Dr. Lyle Oberg, Minister of Infrastructure and Transportation. "Infrastructure improvements also make highways safer, which is a priority for this government." Construction highlights for 2005 include: Paving 434 kilometres; Twinning 46 kilometres; Completing seven interchanges and starting eight others; Chip seal coating 425 kilometres; Grading 60 kilometres. Highlights of major projects include: Completed the Douglasdale interchange on Deerfoot Trail in Calgary, making Highway 2 completely free-flow from Claresholm to Edmonton. Completed the South Innisfail interchange on Highway 2, Cassils Road interchange on Highway 1 near Brooks, the Campsite Road interchange on Highway 16 near Spruce Grove, and two interchanges on Anthony Henday Drive at Whitemud Drive and 87th Avenue. Completed and opened Anthony Henday Drive in Edmonton between Lessard Road and Terwillegar Drive, including new twin bridges over the North Saskatchewan River. Started the southeast leg of Anthony Henday Drive, Alberta's first highway project using a public-private partnership. Completed 44 kilometres of twinning on Highway 43 between Edmonton and Grande Prairie. Completed 24 kilometres of new paving on Highway 881 between Lac La Biche and Ft. McMurray. - 30 - Media enquiries may be directed to: Bart Johnson Communications Director Alberta Infrastructure and Transportation (780) 415-1841 To call toll free within Alberta dial 310-0000.

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.
