Improvements
$800 MILLION
CITY OF CALGARY
Improvements at the Ivor Strong Bridge, Anderson
Road & Bow Bottom Trail, Southland Drive, and
Glenmore Trail are being delivered through one Design-Build contract. During a Design-Build, the project
is designed and constructed concurrently. This allows
a project to be delivered in a shorter period and
provides the contractor with more opportunity to be
innovative to meet the requirements of the contract.
Improvements at 64 Avenue NE (completed Fall
2023), Beddington Trail NW & 11 Street NE, McKnight
Boulevard NE, and 16 Avenue NE are being delivered
through four separate Design-Bid-Build contracts.
During a Design-Bid-Build, the project is fully designed,
then bid, then constructed.
