Route Selection

The route between Cheecham and Edmonton was chosen with great care to bypass known environmentally sensitive areas and wildlife habitat as much as possible, reduce potential impacts on Aboriginal and agricultural lands, minimize the number of water and road crossings, and avoid areas where construction would be especially difficult.

Enbridge Athabasca’s route surveyors and design engineers also plotted a route that was as short as possible. The shorter pipeline route reduces both costs and overall impacts to the land and communities along the planned route.
