Building Great Neighbourhoods - Canora/West Jasper Place

The Neighbourhood Renewal Program in Canora and West Jasper Place will be completed in 2021.

Project Update - Spring 2021

Approximately 40 remaining tree plantings will be completed in spring/summer 2021.

About the Program

We returned to Canora and West Jasper Place to complete the neighbourhood renewal and implement the designs for the side streets of Stony Plain Road (see map).

The Neighbourhood Renewal Program rehabilitated most of the neighbourhood roads in Canora and West Jasper Place between 2011 and 2014. Between 2012 and 2015, the City constructed streetscaping improvements along Stony Plain Road between 149 Street and 156 Street. Plans for improvements to the side streets within the study area needed to tie into the design of Stony Plain Road, so the City deferred their renewal in order to complete a concept planning study.

In addition to the improvements recommended by this study, the side streets received the same improvements as standard neighbourhood renewal projects, such as the rehabilitation of sidewalks, road surfaces, curbs and gutters, streetlights and drainage catch basins.

Project History

Project Update - Fall 2020

The sodding program is complete in Canora/West Jasper Place as well as approximately 50% of the planned tree plantings. All remaining tree plantings will be completed in spring 2021.

Project Update - August 2020

The sod program resumed in Canora/West Jasper Place and is 95% complete. Areas of sod were left out for tree plantings which took place throughout the summer.

Construction Update - Spring 2019

Construction is now underway in Canora and West Jasper Place. The construction includes removal and replacement of street lighting, public sidewalk, curb and gutter, as well as reconstruction and paving of the road.

The June Bulletin contains important project and contact information for residents and property owners, as well as a map of Canora and West Jasper Place which identifies the scope of work planned for 2019. The Prime Contractor working for the City will deliver bulletins outlining the estimated start/finish dates of each portion of the project, along with their contact information.

The City thanks residents and property owners for their patience as we make these improvements.

For special concerns or access requirements, such as DATS, please contact the Delivery Project Manager, at Jason.Caudron@edmonton.ca at 780-495-0268.

Pre-Construction Meeting - February 2019

On February 12 2019, the City hosted a public meeting to provide detailed information regarding the final design, what residents can expect during construction and the Local Improvement process for sidewalks.

Concept Planning Study

In 2016, the City completed a concept planning study for side streets in Canora and West Jasper Place. The study area was bounded by 150 Street, 155 Street, 100 Avenue and 102 Avenue but did not include intersections across the avenues.

The purpose of the study was to ensure the streets tie into recent improvements in the neighbourhoods and to align renewal with existing planning and revitalization initiatives in the area.

The Neighbourhood Renewal Program rehabilitated streets in Canora and West Jasper Place from 2011 to 2014. The program renewed improved side streets south of 100 Avenue (in West Jasper Place), north of 102 Avenue (in Canora). Between 2012 and 2015, the City constructed streetscaping improvements along Stony Plain Road between 149 Street and 156 Street. The improvements were part of the Jasper Place Revitalization Strategy and funded by the Great Neighbourhoods Initiative.

Plans for improvements to the side streets within the study area need to tie into the design of Stony Plain Road, so the City deferred their renewal in order to complete this concept planning study.
