About 3 km. south of Yankee Valley Road, this is one of three cameras on this tower, looking north. On this camera, the photo named south is actually looking north and vice versa.
Alberta Highway Traffic Cams are operated by
Alberta Transportation and
Parks Canada. The cameras are updated three times per hour.
Alberta has found many ways to spend its oil money, one of which is these highway webcams, almost all of which are also weather stations. Each tower, aside from the webcam(s), is equipped with an anemometer, weather vane, thermometer, barometer and a road temperature sensor. The weather data is telemetered to Alberta Transportation and appears on each webcam's web page.
