Strathcona County is upgrading Township Road 560 to a Class I road from Range Road 214 to approximately 1,200 metres east.  

The upgrades will provide a safe and sustainable roadway to help support current and future traffic and will tie into the improvements completed on Township Road 560 in 2018. 

Proposed upgrades include:

• Widening the current 6.5 metre roadway to a 10 metre roadway (3.5 metre wide lanes and 1.5 metre wide shoulder) 
• Improving the roadway to a hot-mix asphalt surface 
• Providing gentler ditch side slopes, where possible 
• Improving the road profile to prevent future road closures due to spring flooding 

Project timeline

This project is currently in the construction phase.

• Summer 2024 – Power pole relocation work and jersey barrier removal to be completed.
• Summer 2023 – Remaining work expected to be completed.
• November 2022 – Roadway opened with majority of work completed.
