Schreyer Award & Award of Excellence
Calgary International Airport East Deicing Apron
In the fall of 2018, WestJet and Air Canada asked the Calgary Airport Authority (YYC) for a centralized aircraft deicing facility, or deicing apron, to speed up wait times. With growing air traffic demands and larger airplanes, deicing could take up to 40 minutes at the gates¡ªat-gate deicing couldn¡¯t keep the busiest airport in Alberta running efficiently. Â鶹´«Ã½¡¯²õ team worked closely with YYC on designing a solution. An 11-hectare deicing apron, including the critical diversion structure, diverts and contains deicing glycol runoff for treatment and recycling. This project successfully reduced taxi times from 40 minutes to an average of 17 minutes, improved the passenger experience, reinforced YYC¡¯²õ environmental policies and stewardship, and maintained consistent glycol containment.

The jury called Â鶹´«Ã½¡¯²õ deicing project exciting for its dynamic approach, which allowed the firm to make changes quickly during modelling and construction, and praised its used of carbon injection in concrete to reduce emissions.
