Talk:List of Alberta provincial highways

message: Where is Highway 31. In the article it says it's between Seba Beach and Gainford, yet the two communities are linked by highway 759 and yellowhead, no direct link (see google maps for example). --Qyd 03:40, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Hwy 31 is so short that most maps don't have it; I was quite surprised to  see the "Hwy 31" signs when I had to drive down 759 about a year ago.  It's primary highway 31 from the Hwy 16 junction to the southern edge of Seba Beach, and secondary highway 759 from there on, with only tiny signs to mark the transition. I have no idea why it's set up that way. 02:30, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

text: I'm not sure if Hwy 31 exists anymore.  Any signs for that corner along the Yellowhead read as 759, unless this has been changed recently.  As well, it also appear tha Hwy 30 has been decommissioned as well, as any signage for that corner does not show the highway number anymore. Nericson081263 (talk) 19:25, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text:  It still does exist according to both the 2008 and 2009 editions of Alberta Transportation's "Primary Highways 1 to 216 Series Progress Chart" and the 2009 Alberta Official Road Map produced by Alberta Sustainable Resource Development for Travel Alberta (a division of Alberta Tourism, Parks and Recreation).

message: Highway 93 doesn't end at Lake Louise, unless something's changed recently.  It continues southeast on the same roadbed as the Trans-Canada to Castle Junction, where it branches off again and heads for Vermilion Pass on the B.C. border. The highway continues with the same "93" number all the way to Mexico, or a least California, if I recall correctly.  The name "Icefields Parkway", however, is restricted to the Jasper-Lake Louise portion. Indefatigable 21:07, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: I believe that the original page came from  especially since the typo error on Highway 11A shows a closing parenthesis after Rocky Mountain House on both pages. However, I think the same results could have been generated anyway. Also the page has been modified and is obviously useful. Cadillac 15:18, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

message: I was surprised to find that there's no article about any Highway 666.  Alberta is one of several provinces and states to have a highway with this somewhat notable numeric assignment. QuinnHK 05:05, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

message: I have tried several times to add Secondary Highway 615 to the list.  It has been removed each time it has been added for some strange reason, as this highway does in fact exist between Highways 14 and 36 running south to southeast of Viking.  The most recent maps show this highway, however it keeps being removed. Nericson081263 (talk) 16:06, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Hello! Welcome to wikipedia. Thank-you for finally creating an account, so that I can talk to you. I am from Beaver County, so I keep up with the recent news, the decision to make Hwy 615 part of Hwy 26 is so recent, as seen on this news release, that no map shows it yet. I have already redirected the article Alberta Highway 615 to Alberta Highway 26. Also, I have never heard of this Philips, it does not deserve a Wiki link, as the other hamlets in Beaver County (Bruce, Kinsella), do not have articles yet. Another thing that I would like you to keep in mind, is that maps from popular brands, and internet mapping websites, are not always right, I have used a Government of Alberta issued map. 117Avenue (talk) 18:07, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi! Thanks for clearing this up.  I was not aware that this change had been made as I was going from a 2009 edition of the Alberta Road Atlas, so this must have been very recent.  I had lived in Edmonton for several years and had occasionally travelled Highway 14 whenever I headed east.  Thanks for this. Nericson081263 (talk) 18:34, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

text: All I know is from the county newsletter. It appears from the newsletter that Alberta Transportation had the idea before Beaver County Council. I must admit I did want to change this article a bit preemptively, so that it won't have to be changed in the future. But this newsletter was written in June, it must have taken into effect by now. I realize that it takes time to go from Council and government signing documents to the actual physical signs being changed, that it why the formal highways section gives the general term "2009". 117Avenue (talk) 07:56, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Based on what I've learned from the four Provincial news links on this page involving past highway renumberings, it appears AT was recently undertaking the municipal consultation stage of renumbering the highway.  With the support of County Council attained, I suspect the renumbering is inevitable.  Perhaps an inquiry to AT is in order, or we can wait until the 2010 Alberta Road Map is released.  The 2009 versions of the AT Progress Charts that I have (prepared May, 2009) still show it as Hwy 615. (Daryou1978 (talk) 03:44, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: It is official.  I inquired with AT and AT confirmed Hwy 615 was renumbered to Hwy 26 effective July 14th.  This should then show up on the 2010 Primary Highway Progress Charts, which are annual snapshots in time taken on March 31 (the end of AT's fiscal year).  In other news, an AT news release issued today (Nov-4/09) announced that the Hwy 54 realignment (bypass of Innisfail) is now open. (Daryou1978 (talk) 00:34, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

message: As I understand it, the highway between Edmonton and Calgary is no longer called Highway 2 at all, but QEII. It should have its own entry separate from Highway 2. At the very least, the QEII sign should be incorporated into the list, as it's what people see, not the Highway 2 shield. 68.146.64.9 (talk) 14:43, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Provincial legislation (Provincial Highways Designation Order, effective January 1, 2010, under the Highways Development and Protection Act) and mapping (Alberta Transportation's Provincial Highways 1 - 216 Progress Chart and Travel Alberta's official road map) still number it as Highway 2, and the assignment of exit numbers between Calgary and Edmonton continue based on the Highway 2 exit numbers south of Calgary.  Also on Anthony Henday Drive in Edmonton, way-finding signage at exit ramps refer to it as Highway 2. Hwy43 (talk) 16:57, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

message: A discussion has been initiated here advising that the province has rebranding the designation of its highway system once again.  
The primary highways designation has been dropped in favour of provincial highways. 
If you have any comments to share before revisions are processed to acknowledge the designation change, please do so at this other discussion (instead of here) to keep everything in one place.  Cheers, Hwy43 (talk) 20:41, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Proposed renaming of Alberta provincial highways subcats 

message: Very likely went from Amber Valley to Athabasca. Did not last long. Original 55 probably went from Beiseker to Near Langdon (Highway 9 went on current Highway 72) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alexlatham96 (talk • contribs) 20:30, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: I have every official Alberta road map issued since 1938. Highway 72 was never previously Highway 9. You use terms like "very likely" and "probably" for the others, but I'm fairly confident from memory of reviewing all these maps that these never existed. If you can provide approximate year(s) for each I can take a look however. Hwy43 (talk) 02:16, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't have the maps in front of me, but I recall that Hwy 72 was previously Hwy 572 (changed in the early 1980's?) while the original Hwy 55 was present-day Hwy 21 between Hwy 16 and Fort Saskatchewan, while Hwy 21 ended at Hwy 14. Does anyone have the time-frame? MuzikMachine (talk) 15:23, 25 April 2017 (UTC)

message: Hello!  A couple years ago the province of Alberta updated their wordmark, resulting in all their highway shields having a slightly new look.  The present 1-216 highways shields presently show this revised look; however, the 500-986 series and the selected named highways need to be updated.  What would be the proper way to start this project? Cheers! MuzikMachine (talk) 15:28, 25 April 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: It would just be a matter of somebody finding the time to do it. These days, I kind of prod away when I have a bit of time but that's vector graphic stuff I think, and I'd have to learn how to do it before tackling it. -- Acefitt 16:17, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
