General resident safety

As rebuild work progresses, conditions in the neighbourhood can change quickly. A route that is safe one day may be under construction the next, so please stay alert and adapt as needed.

• Follow all posted signage and crew directions
• Avoid active work zones, fenced areas, and equipment paths
• Do not cross or jump over open trenches or materials
• Use designated walkways and access points and be prepared to adjust your route if required

Your awareness helps keep everyone safe during ongoing construction.

Storing materials on a neighbouring Lot?

Due to limited availability of space for storing materials and equipment near construction sites, many have been using neighbouring lots as temporary laydown. As a leaseholder you can decide whether or not you want this to happen on your property. An email has been sent to all leaseholders identifying key points to consider when entering into an agreement of this sort.

ATCO updates

ATCO Electric has 'released' all lots in Cabin Creek West following completion of utility re-installation work. For information please visit Cabin Creek Utility Rebuild Project.

No drones

We recognize that many are interested in capturing footage of rebuild progress. With homeowner permission, we fully support photography and videography, as long as it does not involve drones.

Please note that the takeoff or landing of drones anywhere within Jasper National Park is strictly prohibited, and requests for drone use related to individual rebuild projects cannot be approved. Parks Canada continues to document overall community progress for Jasper Rebuild.

Thank you for helping us comply with park regulations and maintain a safe airspace.

November 28 builders meeting

The Municipality hosted a builders meeting on Friday, November 28 that was well attended, with 31 participants.

A follow-up meeting with builders is scheduled for February 4, 2026 to help ensure the best for the 2026 construction season.

Marmot Pit winter closure - Important update

We know many builders have been concerned about winter access to the Marmot Pit. We’ve heard the feedback throughout the fall and have done what we can to extend access.

Marmot Pit will now be open until December 20, 2025, a change from the original November 15 date based on industry input. Starting Monday, December 8 until the December 20 closure, Marmot Pit will be open Monday through Saturday from 7:30 am until 5 pm. After December 20, the pit will close for the winter and will reopen in spring 2026.

We recognize that there is pressure for those managing tight construction timelines. While winter use of the pit isn’t possible, there are several options available:

Winter storage and disposal options:

• On-site storage at active construction locations
• Private arrangements with neighbouring lots or other sites within town
• Disposal locations outside the park boundary

Parks Canada is continuing to explore additional soil storage options for spring 2026, and we will share updates as soon as they are available.

For full details on Marmot Pit requirements and operational dates, visit the Parks Canada Marmot Pit Regulations page.

Sub-Contractor Registration

Prime Contractors with a business license can register sub-contractors using a new form on the Municipality of Jasper webpage: https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?i...

Registering your sub-contractors gets them the same benefits as having a full business license: free entry to the Park through National Park work passes and free parking in residential and paid parking areas (you still have to abide by the parking time rules).

Online Utilities Map

The MoJ has recently set up a new online utilities map that shows the approximate location of water, sewer and stormwater infrastructure in town. This information can be helpful in preparing site plans and knowing where to plan to connect to municipal services. Link: https://www.jasper-alberta.ca/p/utilitymap

Need Power?

Apply to get your power and natural gas services reconnected. You'll need to submit a 'new connection request' to ATCO Gas and to ATCO Electric here to get that process started: https://www.atco.com/en-ca/businesses/atco-energy-...

Once you've submitted an application, a representative from ATCO will reach out to you to confirm details about overhead or underground connections and tie-in procedures.

You should submit service connection requests ahead of the time that you need power or heat so that ATCO representatives will be able to work with you to finalize the connection plans to avoid delays in your construction process.
