To improve safety for people and wildlife, the Trans-Canada Highway is being upgraded in stages through Banff National Park. The most recent upgrade from a two-lane to four-lane divided highway is underway east of Lake Louise.

Highway fencing will help reduce vehicle-wildlife collisions, while new wildlife crossings will help maintain or restore wildlife movements vital to sustain healthy wildlife populations. The 24 existing crossings, monitored since 1996, have been used by 11 species of large mammals. There is no other location in the world with as many different types and number of wildlife crossings.
