Opening 48 Ave to Michener Park

Hello everyone,

Recently I’ve heard concerns about the possible opening of 48 Ave into the Michener Park redevelopment.  The replies I've received from can be summarized as follows:

  • Community League:  We don’t want 48 Ave open to traffic

  • City Councillor:  I don’t want 48 Ave to open

  • University Property Trust:  … the Trust does not desire to connect 48th Avenue

  • City Planning department:  … the current iteration from Stantec on behalf of UofA Land Trust shows 48th Avenue terminating at the east property line.

Based on this, it appears there is no basis for the idea that 48 Ave will be opened to vehicle traffic between Malmo Plains and the Michener Park redevelopment.
