NEW
Deerfoot Trail
Improvements
$664 MILLION
Alberta Transportation and Economic Corridors (TEC) is undertaking improvements
to Deerfoot Trail. Deerfoot Trail is Alberta’s busiest freeway and sees over 180,000 vehicles per day in some sections. It is a critical component of Calgary’s transportation
network for both commuter travel and goods movement. Since Deerfoot Trail was initially constructed in the 1970s, Calgary’s population has doubled, more people have
access to vehicles, and traffic volumes have continued to increase. The improvements
will add additional lanes along Deerfoot Trail as well as improve safety and reliability
for drivers. This work supports Calgary’s current traffic volumes and sets The City up for
future population growth and projected traffic volumes.

WATER/WASTEWATER
Bonnybrook Wastewater
Treatment Plant D Expansion
$655 MILLION
Bonnybrook Wastewater Treatment Plant is the largest of three wastewater treatment
plants serving Calgary and area. Originally built in the 1930’s, Bonnybrook is undergoing
its most substantial upgrade to date. With an Investment of more than $1-billon dollars
over the span of 10 years, it is expected that Bonnybrook will see its total treatment
capacity increase to nearly $1.4 million citizens when completed in 2026.
At Plant D, the greatest number of projects were completed and commissioned
including the installation of two new primary clarifiers and six additional secondary
clarifiers. This project also entailed the construction of three secondary treatment
bioreactors and retrofits and upgrades to existing solids handling digesters, and the
UV disinfection facility. Lastly, as part of this Plant D upgrade, a new bio-gas handling
storage facility was completed and commissioned.
