Overview

Calgary Transportation

Moving people and goods safely and efficiently into, through and around a city is necessary for a sound quality of urban life.

Keeping that front of mind, Calgary City Council has been expanding the capacity and improving the efficiency of the city’s overall transportation network over the past decade.

Calgary takes up some space – it covers more than 848 square kilometres (327.4 square miles) – so moving people and goods from one point to another takes a vast, integrated network of airports, roads, rail-lines, light-rail transit, buses, pathways and bridges.
