The Crowchild Trail Short-Term Improvements was one of the most complex transportation projects ever completed for The City of Calgary. Adding new lanes, relocating ramps, improving the existing pathway system, and retrofitting bridges that cross the Bow River, CP Railway tracks, LRT tracks, other major roadways, pathways and sensitive habitats, all the while not impacting Calgarians’ daily commutes, has put this project on the map – and the 2022 recipient of multiple CEA awards.
The 17SX project is a critical connection in Calgary’s Rivers District Master Plan to reconnect Stampede Park to the Beltline neighbourhood while bringing the energy and excitement of 17 Avenue into the heart of the Culture & Entertainment District. The project is lead by CMLC, in partnership with Calgary Transit, and includes the overhaul of the Victoria Park/Stampede CTrain station. The new modern at-grade station will provide direct east-west connectivity within the district and neighbouring Beltline communities.
