Alberta's New Southern Pipeline Route Mirrors Existing Corridor

Alberta's new southern pipeline route aims to mirror the existing Trans Mountain corridor until Hope, B.C., where it would split and send oil to a marine terminal at Roberts Bank.

The $35 billion or more project is expected to be a major undertaking, but proponents argue it will be 'easier' than previous proposals due to its alignment with existing infrastructure.

However, the new route may not be straightforward as it would still need to navigate through densely populated areas and sensitive ecosystems.
