The City of Calgary is planning for the 10th Street Gravel Bar and Recreational Wave project, which would reshape the gravel bar beneath the Louise Bridge along the Bow River on 10th Street NW. The project would see the gravel and soil removed and redistributed to nearby areas of the river to improve river flow, protect infrastructure and create recreational opportunities including a recreational wave along the Bow River. Following the 2013 floods in Calgary, the gravel bar has continued to grow, restricting river flow beneath the bridge and increasing flood risks to nearby communities.
The project timeline has regulatory approvals scheduled for November 2026 to November 2027, with the construction schedule to be determined.
