Stantec and the Edmonton Downtown Business Association have partnered to beautify the city core by creating original artwork for several traffic control boxes.
The traffic control boxes show five hand-painted perspectives of iconic Edmonton cityscapes and scenery, reflecting the different viewpoints that our Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) encourage. Stantec Tower is present in each as a central part of the city, with pops of movement and color in the backgrounds to bring the skyline to life. The following five ERGs are represented, from left to right:
