The first three projects and the 5th are identified as having the most significant impact on traffic congestion and will likely be receiving funding in the 2027-30 budget. The others will depend on how much council wants to spend on road widening versus other priorities.

I think 215 Street and Stony Plain Road has to be one of the most dangerous intersections.

From Councillor Parmar's Facebook page:
So many people have asked me about upgrading 215 Street. It’s happening! 215 will be temporarily closed to accommodate construction between March 31st, 2026 and February 27th, 2027. Timelines can shift.
Brookfield will be responsible for the blue stretch shown as Stage 2A. With the Stage 3 portion being completed by Rohit/Anthem.
Please use 45 Avenue to 199 Street and the Anthony Henday as alternate routes during this time. Thank you for your patience during construction. Looking forward to a smooth, freshly paved roadway with a shoulder.\

There is? It’s kinda tight in front of Ellerslie Elementary and all of that weird piece meal compounds/commercial jammed in there…..

If 34 Street is widened between 76 Avenue and Sherwood Park Freeway, they’ll have to replace the bridge.

Well at least on the north side of Henday. On the southside it is a pretty big mess. Hopefully they will finally tidy it up to make more sense since south of Ellerslie it is a good road.

I'm a little confused how 41 Ave from QE2 to James Mowatt is that expensive. The portion from the highway to Allard Rd is basically already twinned, it would just need some changes at the Allard Rd intersection, then the block between Allard and James Mowatt. Unless there's land acquisition included in that figure maybe? Made more confusing when comparing to the 66 Street upgrade, which includes a bridge and about 5x the length being almost the same price.

I wonder if utilities have to be moved or built.

^ I suspect both. With the densification planned for ICE II I imagine Sewers and Water Supply will both have to be upgraded and same for Electrical Service (this would be a great time to explore all of the advances in Solar and Wind -- Perovskite Panels (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perovskite_solar_cell) and Halcium Wind Energy Turbines (https://www.halcium.com/our-turbine) are front of mind. The City could play a major role in providing incentives for these to be set in place.
