» Between 101st Street SW and the community of West Springs
• Gravel pit will provide a significant portion of material needed to build the SWCRR: » Five million cubic metres of gravel expected to be
extracted

• Site equipment within this area will include: » Excavators
» Loaders
» Work trucks
» Scrapers
» Crushing equipment
» Miscellaneous machinery
What to Expect in 2017• Earthworks and construction expected to begin in January
2017: » Early activities include stripping topsoil to create
earth wall (berm) between gravel pit and neighbouring community - helping mitigate some noise
» Berm construction to be completed in approximately four to six weeks
» Crushing of gravel expected to start March 2017
• Increase in truck traffic will occur in early 2017: » Loaded gravel trucks will travel down haul road
» Empty trucks will return up 101st Street SW
