I did some rough calculations today.
Here's what I came up with.
Our service area is approximately 450 square miles or 1200 square kilometers.
We have 25 miles of Transcanada Hiway 1
We have 19 miles of hiway 24
We have 8 miles of hiway 21
We have 15 miles of hiway 564
We have 20 miles of hiway 817
We have 13 miles of hiway 901
We have a recreational lake (Eagle Lake) and the Bow River
We have the Hamlets of Carseland, Cheadle, Namaka, Nightengale, Lyalta.
We have the golf course developments at Speargrass and Lakes of Muirfield With more planned at Oxbow golf course and another major development at Eagle lake.
We are on the flight path for the international airport in Calgary
There is major commercial / light industrial development ongoing as part of the Hiway 1 area structure plan.
I'm struck when I think about the grand scale of it all by the massive potential for bad things to happen. I'm also amazed by our ability to adapt with such limited resources.
