Strathcona County, at the request of Alberta Transportation, conducted a Functional Planning Study to determine future needs of Highway 15 for the section between Range Road 220 and Highway 830 North.  Highway 15 runs through a significant portion of the Alberta’s Industrial Heartland and as new development occurs in the area, there will be an impact on traffic.

The County engaged CIMA+ to conduct the Functional Planning Study.  The Study included the medium and long–term upgrade needs of the highway and what effects these needs may have on the surrounding landowners and community.
