During two identical public outdoor events, residents and stakeholders explored a variety of possibilities for enhancements on Ada Boulevard and ways to slow traffic throughout Highlands. Participants were asked to provide their level of comfort on examples of pedestrian and bike facilities, crossings and traffic calming, community connections, open spaces and gathering places.
Highlands has been chosen for reconstruction beginning in spring 2019 with completion expected for 2021.
Neighbourhood reconstruction is a type of neighbourhood renewal that involves road reconstruction and repaving, as well as replacement of streetlights and reconstruction of sidewalks, curb and gutter. Alley renewal is not part of neighbourhood reconstruction. It also includes the opportunity for two local improvements, sidewalk renewal and decorative streetlights.
A series of public events will be scheduled which will give residents the opportunity to view the design plans and discuss details with the project team.

The construction of Ada Boulevard will be completed with the upcoming neighbourhood renewal work in Virginia Park (2018), Bellevue (2018 - 2019) and Highlands (2019 - 2021).
As a follow-up to the workshop at the Highlands Golf Course on January 22, 2018 and the online survey that was accessible between February 7 - 19, 2018, the City of Edmonton has compiled, analysed and integrated your input in the Renewing Ada Boulevard - Reporting Back report. Your feedback has helped to refine the design option for Virginia Park and will shape the process and future design for Bellevue and Highlands.
On April 14 and 17, 2018, Building Great Neighbourhoods held two workshops to help refine the project vision and identify important elements for renewing infrastructure in Highlands.
Attendees participated in a neighbourhood walk followed by a workshop where their input will help to identify areas in Highlands that could be improved upon as part of the renewal project.
A summary of the insights received during these engagement activities is available in the What We Heard Report (Phase II).
Businesses and organizations in Highlands were invited to a stakeholder workshop to learn more about the Highlands neighbourhood renewal. This was a facilitated workshop to provide the initial opportunity for ideas for what the community, as a whole, is hoping the renewal work will achieve. Themes from this session will be presented at the public meeting in April.
On January 22, the City hosted a community conversation to discuss the future renewal initiative for Ada Boulevard. The importance of this initial conversation was to understand how Edmontonians enjoy and make use of the boulevard. Future discussions are expected and will build upon what was learned.
