The 170 Street S.W. Conceptual Planning Study is currently<br />

underway for the <strong>City</strong> and is expected to be completed in 2010.<br />

The ‘Area <strong>of</strong> Influence’ as shown on Figure 9.0 – Transportation<br />

Network identifies the lands adjacent to the 170 Street S.W.<br />

corridor and future interchanges where road right-<strong>of</strong>-way<br />

requirements have not yet been identified. Subdivision <strong>of</strong> lands<br />

within this area shall not proceed until completion <strong>of</strong> this study.<br />

184 Street will be a minor arterial roadway providing north-south<br />

access to western portions <strong>of</strong> <strong>Windermere</strong>. Sufficiently separated<br />

secondary access points can be provided between arterial<br />

intersections at Ellerslie Road, 25 Avenue SW and 41 Avenue<br />

SW.<br />

A scenic roadway will be provided south <strong>of</strong> Ellerslie Road along<br />

the North Saskatchewan River Top-<strong>of</strong>-Bank at the NSP stage with<br />

final alignment to be determined at the subdivision stage. Several<br />

viewpoint parks will be provided at the Neighbourhood Structure<br />

Plan stage, and these parks shall be provided with roadway<br />

access.<br />

6.4 Truck Route<br />

Under the <strong>Windermere</strong> <strong>ASP</strong>, Terwillegar Drive / 170 Street is<br />

designated as a truck route connecting the major boundary roads<br />

<strong>of</strong> Anthony Henday Drive and 41 Avenue SW which are<br />

designated truck routes. In addition the business park will need to<br />

be serviced by a truck route and the extension <strong>of</strong> the existing<br />

route on Ellerslie Road from Heritage Valley to 170 Street is<br />

anticipated to provide this connection.<br />

6.5 Transit / Pedestrian Networks<br />

6.5.1 Transit Connectivity<br />

The <strong>Windermere</strong> <strong>ASP</strong> will provide a range <strong>of</strong> transit services to<br />

residents, workers and visitors. This includes major / minor transit<br />

terminal(s), waiting areas, and stops. Collector roadways will be<br />

developed to a suitable standard to accommodate transit service<br />

and will provide readily accessible service to all neighbourhood<br />

areas. This directly supports the development <strong>of</strong> sustainable<br />

transportation options within the <strong>Windermere</strong> <strong>ASP</strong>.<br />

Within the plan, a major transit terminal is identified within the<br />

north-central portion <strong>of</strong> the plan. More specifically, this site is<br />

located east <strong>of</strong> Terwillegar Drive south <strong>of</strong> Anthony Henday Drive<br />

and integrated with a mixture <strong>of</strong> land uses (i.e. commercial,<br />

residential). This terminal will establish Transit Oriented<br />

Development within Neighbourhood One providing an attractive,<br />

pedestrian oriented environment within easy walking distance <strong>of</strong><br />

transit services. The benefits <strong>of</strong> this location and <strong>of</strong> TOD include:<br />

superior access by virtue <strong>of</strong> its proximity to Anthony Henday Drive<br />

and Terwillegar Drive, facilities supported by higher intensity land<br />
