The Bow Valley Gap Wildlife Overpass is the first wildlife overpass in
Alberta located outside of Banff National Park, where crossings are
managed federally by Parks Canada.
DIALOG received a Minister’s Award for Transportation Innovation at
the Transportation Connects Alberta conference for its design of the
Bow Valley Gap Wildlife Overpass.
The Spark generators consist of a 24-kW battery connected to a
12x340-Watt solar panel, which charges the battery and powers the
infrastructure. A small diesel generator acts as a backup/top-up for
the battery when solar can’t meet the entire demand.
