May 2017: Cut back to 16th Ave - Shepard, construction to begin in 2020 and opening in 2026
June 2019: 4km core tunnel no longer feasible, new plan (with 2.5 km tunnel) developed with construction expected to begin 2021, new managing director hired
June 2020: Council approves new plan with shorter tunnels and 3 phase Stage 1 but not approved by Alberta
Sept 2020: Managing director leaves
July 2021: Alberta approves new plan with 2 phase Stage 1, new CEO for GL is hired
April 2023: Constructor is selected but requires 16 months for design
June 2024: 60% design is finished
Disagree with the plan all you want but you have to be able to at least agree that the way the Province handled this is an absolute disaster.
