Highway 947 Extension Project
Alberta Transportation proposes to construct and operate an extension of Highway 947 in north-central Alberta, from Highway 16 to the Athabasca River Bridge. The proposed Highway 947 Extension Project would be a 2-lane all-season highway, predominantly located on a new right-of-way and 69.2 kilometres long. The new north-south highway would begin about 10 kilometres west of Edson on Highway 16, and end at the Athabasca River Bridge, south of Highway 43 between Fox Creek and Whitecourt, Alberta.
Latest update
August 16, 2019 – The Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency terminated the environmental assessment process of the designated project at the request of the proponent.
