Highway 93A Mile 5 Hill Slope Stabilization
This is a non-designated project on federal lands or outside Canada. The listed authorities are responsible for the project assessment.
Parks Canada is proposing slope stabilization work along Highway 93A in Jasper National Park, at a location commonly known as Mile 5 Hill. The slope extends for 1 kilometer beside the roadway and is experiencing erosion and rockfall hazards that have increased since the 2024 Jasper Wildfire. A site-specific, targeted approach will be used to address different areas of instability along the slope, rather than applying a single solution across the entire site. Potential activities include a range of stabilization measures such as bioengineering, slope flattening, drainage improvements, and the installation of rockfall or erosion control features. The project is intended to reduce hazards, protect the roadway, and support safe travel.
Latest update
June 8 2026 – Parks Canada intends to make a determination regarding whether the carrying out of the project is likely to cause significant adverse environmental effects. To help inform this determination, Parks Canada is inviting public comments until July 8 2026 respecting that determination.
