Before a backlane paving project can be scheduled for paving, it must be approved by Council.

Check the annual backlane paving schedule or the Calgary Roadway Activities Map to see if a project is on this year’s list to be paved. This schedule is updated throughout the paving season.

In addition, affected residents receive a written notice from The City’s contractor advising when work will begin. Work typically takes two weeks. This may be impacted by weather, as work is weather dependent and the backlane needs to be completely dry for work to take place.
