Calgary’s Pathway and Bikeway Projects (5A)

We are building a city where everyone has access to safe, healthy, and affordable travel options, year-round. 

Our network of pathways and bikeways spans the city, improving access to workplaces, schools, parks, and local destinations while enhancing safety and connectivity for all.

We're committed to expanding this network over the next 60 years by filling gaps, adding features, and supporting the daily, essential activities of Calgarians such as walking, cycling, and scootering. With over 4,000 km of pathways and bikeways mapped out for the future of travel in Calgary, these new enhancements and paths will create more vibrant and connected communities.

Rectangular Rapid-Flashing Beacon (RRFB)

As part of our goal to enhance safety with the installation of new crossings, we were approved to build 28 Rectangular Rapid-Flashing Beacons (RRFB) next year. RRFBs enhance the safety of pedestrian crossings by alerting drivers that a person on foot is ready to cross with flashing lights that resemble emergency flashers on police vehicles. The lights continue to light up as you walk inside the crosswalk, alerting drivers the whole time the crossing is in use.  

Here are the RRFB locations underway: 

  • 24 Avenue & 18 Street NW
  • 5 Avenue & 23 Street NW
  • 129 Avenue & Bonaventure Drive SE
  • 130 Avenue & Wood Valley Gate SW
  • Briddlecrest Drive & 24 Street SW
  • Acadia Drive & Ancourt Road SE
  • Braeside Drive & Braniff Road SW
  • 5004 Maryvale Drive NE
  • 16 Avenue & Robson Crescent SE
  • 26 Avenue & 39 Street SE
  • 38 Avenue & 20 Street SW
  • Wentworth Drive & Wentworth Road SW
  • Martha’s Way & Martindale Boulevard NE
  • 44 Avenue & 4 Street NW
  • Panamount Boulevard & Panamount Street NW
  • Hidden Green/Hidden Park & Hidden Valley Drive NW
  • Tuscany Drive & Tuscany Glen Road NW
  • Cranston Drive & Cramond Dr / Cranfield Pa SE

Corridor projects

Missing Links

87 Street NW

This project is to create a pathway that connects Bearspaw Dam Rd to Nose Hill Drive NW. The goal of this pathway is to connect pedestrians and cyclists to adjacent pathways in the new developments in the area.

Glenmore Crowchild Bridge

Repair work to the Crowchild/Glenmore bridge is an opportunity to incorporate a multi-use pathway. The project is to connect the new pathway with the existing pathway network or extend it to a nearby crosswalk to avoid the abrupt narrowing of the pathway at the extents of the bridge. For this project, the pathway extension northward from the Crowchild/Glenmore bridge not only maintains pathway consistency but helps to integrate with Calgary’s pathway and bikeway network.

Saddlecrest Close NE

This project fills a gap in the pathway and bikeway network due to the significant goat trails connecting two pathways.

Longridge Dr SW

This is a project to construct a new pathway on the north side of Longridge Drive SW. The completion of this pathway will benefit the pathway and bikeway network by enhancing the connectivity for pedestrians and cyclists. 

37 St SW

This project is to create a pathway connecting 58 Avenue to 66 Avenue SW along 37 St SW. This pathway has been requested by area residents. This project offers several benefits, including completing a missing link in the pathway network, improving safety at 66 Ave, and addressing drainage issues in the area.

Saddletowne Circle NE

This project consists of replacing 400m of sidewalk with pathway along Saddletowne Circle NE, between Taravista Drive NE and 80th Avenue NE. This project connects to three adjacent pathways and will also connect to a planned east-west connection along 80th Avenue, adding to overall network connectivity in the area. 

41 Ave NW

This project is coordinated with the Nose Creek Bridge rehabilitation and was requested as part of the EAGCS Greenview project in 2021. The widened pathway will require the removal of a vehicle travel lane but will provide a safe connection over Nose Creek and better integration with the Nose Creek Pathway system. 

50 Ave SW

This project is to formalize an adaptive sidewalk and connect it to Crowchild Trail. This initiative is an opportunity to connect to many multi-use paths within the community, enhancing pedestrian and cyclist mobility. 

Anderson Road SW (West of 24 St SW)

This project involves creating a pathway on Anderson Road SW west of 24 Street to the Pedestrian Bridge on Anderson Road SW just east of Tsuut’ina Trail. It coincides with the Fish Creek Sanitary Trunk construction and uses the area of an existing ‘Goat Trail.’ The pathway will enhance access to the surrounding areas and will share space with an access road. Construction is expected to start at the end of 2024. 

McKnight Blvd NE

This project will introduce a 320-meter new multi-use pathway in the grass boulevard. This project is an important link for connecting transit stops to the community and the McKnight Blvd Pedestrian Overpass. 

Silver springs Off-Leash Area

This project will replace a 160-meter gravel trail with a new multi-use pathway. This ‘missing link’ will complete a significant route used informally by residents (‘Goat Trail’) and will enhance the off-leash area.

19 St NE

This project plans to add a 235-meter new multi-use pathway, addressing a ‘missing link’ in the community. This pathway is important for connecting existing paths to bus stops and the Heritage Christian Academy. 

Nose Creek Pathway

This project will introduce a 100-meter new multiuse pathway in park space, bridging a ‘missing link’ and formalizing an existing informal path. This addition will connect 46 Ave NE to the Nose Creek Pathway.

39 Ave NE

This project involves a 980-meter new multi-use pathway and partial sidewalk replacement. It will improve safety along 39 Avenue NE and complete a significant ‘missing link.’

Charleswood Connection

This project involves the construction of a 220m new multi-use pathway in park space. The project will reduce walking distances in Charleswood and benefit St Margaret Elementary/Junior High and St. Francis High School.

10 Ave SW

This project will upgrade an existing sidewalk to a 160-meter multi-use pathway and add curb extensions at 77 Street SW. It will complete a ‘missing link’ in the pathway network, improve safety at a high-risk crossing location, and benefit St. Joan of Arc School.

32 Ave

This project will add a 165-meter new multiuse pathway and partially replace an existing walk. This ‘missing link’ will enhance connectivity to bus stops and the surrounding area, with the potential to be combined with an existing project at 41 Ave Bridge.

St. Moritz Drive

The project at 535 St. Moritz Dr. will introduce a 110-meter new multi-use pathway in park space, formalizing a heavily used ‘Goat Trail’ and reducing walking/wheeling distances in Springbank Hills. The project is in the planning phase.

Country Village Road

This project will upgrade a sidewalk from Harvest Hills Blvd N to Coventry Hills Blvd NE to a multi-use pathway. 

McIvor BV SE

This project will upgrade a sidewalk from 52 St SE to Copperfield Blvd SE to a multi-use pathway. 

14/15 Ave S

This project involves the review of the temporary one-way conversions of 14th/15th Ave S implemented during the reconstruction project for 17th Ave SW. These temporary conversions also saw the installation of one-way wheeling lanes and traffic calming measures at crosswalks. Modifications to 15 Avenue S and 14 Avenue S corridors are a response to the community’s call for improved pedestrian and wheeling infrastructure. The proposed changes involve transforming the existing painted wheeling lane into a protected two-way lane along 15 Avenue S, extending from 12 Street S.W. to northbound Macleod Trail, necessitating the removal of north-side parking. Concurrently, 14 Avenue S will revert to a two-way road, retaining parking on both sides and removing the painted wheeling lane.

14 St NW

This project will upgrade a sidewalk to an arterial pathway standard from Berkshire Blvd to Hidden Valley Dr, spanning 2,700 meters. The project will connect many multi-use paths in the community.
