Project Update - March 2026
It’s the second year of Glenwood West Neighbourhood and Alley Renewal construction. Work on front streets and in the remaining alleys is scheduled to start in May 2026!
Alley Construction
This year, the majority of alley construction will take place from west of 163 Street from south of 99 Avenue to 96A Avenue. Please view this scope map to see the 2026 construction area. For those who live in the 2025 construction areas, any outstanding road deficiency work is scheduled to start at the same time as this year’s construction.
Front Street Construction
Work will consist of reconstruction and paving of the roads, removal and replacement of public sidewalk, curb, gutter and street lighting.
This year, the majority of front street construction will take place from 163 Street to 165 Street. Work will also happen in the commercial area along 164 Street to 166 Street. Please view this scope map to see the 2026 construction area.

The City of Edmonton and EPCOR are working together to construct Low Impact Development (LID), which will help with stormwater retention and help mitigate flooding.
Please watch your mailbox for construction bulletins that will provide more information along with details on landscaping and access. All residents and business owners are asked to access their homes and businesses through the back entrances and alleys, where possible, during construction. If no alley access is available and/or you have special access requirements (i.e. DATS or a temporary access ramp to the front of your home), please contact the Construction Project Manager, Rohail Khan, 780-496-4055, to coordinate.
Construction in Glenwood (163 Street West) began in spring 2025 and is expected to take 3 years (planned completion fall 2027). Neighbourhood and Alley Renewal in Glenwood (163 Street West) is progressing on time and on budget.

We commit to using your feedback to inform communication during construction.
Garbage and Recycling Collection
While your alley is closed for construction, waste cart collection will occur from your front street or avenue. Residents are asked to temporarily relocate carts and recycle bags to the front of your property during alley closures for pick-up on collection days. Carts and bags should be placed in a visible location along the curb or back of the sidewalk, at which point collection workers will maneuver carts so they can be emptied. We recommend you identify your home address in the space provided on the carts to ensure your assigned carts are returned to your home after collection.
