New Calgary Event Centre

Bunt, together with our project partner Entuitive are pleased to be the Transportation and Pedestrian Movement consultants for Calgary’s exciting new Event Centre.  The project represents an evolutionary shift for the City and an acceleration of the execution of the Rivers District Master Plan as developed by the Calgary Municipal Land Corporation.  The Event Centre is a multi-purpose facility that will, among other things, represent the new home of the Calgary Flames.  The impact of this project on the City’s Downtown core, plus its adjacency and connectivity to Stampede Park and both the proposed five billion dollar Green Line LRT and half billion dollar expansion of the BMO Convention Centre cannot be understated in terms of significance.

Bunt will be undertaking all external pedestrian and vehicle simulations and transportation analysis on the roadway, sidewalk, pathway and transit network; while Entuitive will be undertaking all internal pedestrian modelling within the building concourse and event facilities. This partnership will produce a product that is greater than the sum of its parts.
