The City of Calgary’s Capital Projects Map helps residents learn about local infrastructure projects. The map provides detailed information about projects using the City's mapping system.

The Capital Projects Map is in its pilot phase right now, with plans for  regular improvements and additions. Eventually, the map will display all the City’s capital infrastructure projects.

The Capital Projects Map is updated twice a year, in the spring and fall. New projects are added and information is updated for current projects. Finished projects may also be removed. Users should check individual project websites for the latest information.

As of the last update in April, there are 98 capital infrastructure projects listed on the Capital Projects Map.

Click on the project you're interested in on the map. A window will pop up with the project’s email address. If there isn’t one, you can call 311 to reach the project team.

Capital infrastructure projects are large construction and development projects that enhance public services and facilities, including utilities, bridges, parks and public buildings

Concept: This project is working on turning initial ideas into a practical plan through feasibility studies, geotechnical studies, or engagement. 

Design: This project is developing detailed plans and drawings to ensure it meets all requirements before construction begins. 

Build: This project is carrying out the detailed plans from the design phase, including construction or other tasks, like buying land, getting permits or purchasing materials. This phase is complete after a construction completion certificate is issued. 

Warranty: This project is now fully up and running. Documentation of any remaining risks, lessons learned about what was done and benefits to Calgarians is captured in this phase.

The City uses project management best practices and checks progress regularly to keep projects on budget and on time. Teams also plan for possible problems and backup solutions.

The approved budget for a project is the money set aside before construction starts. The actual cost can change due to weather, available materials, site conditions and other factors. A project is considered to be on budget if it’s expected to finish within the set amount.

Not all of The City's capital fits within a four-year cycle. Some projects are already underway, some will be getting started and some will extend into the next budget cycle.

Capital funding comes from different sources:  

• Federal and provincial government grants  
• Corporate reserves  
• Self-supported debt  
• Business unit reserves  
• Developer/other contributions/levies   

The City will look into why this happened, identify any problems and tell the public. We are committed to transparency and making sure we use our resources effectively.
