The TransCanada pipeline right-of-way through Panmure Alvar, west of Ottawa. The completion of this project was a spectacular technological achievement. In the first three years of construction (1956–1958), workers installed 3,500 kilometres of pipe, stretching from the Alberta–Saskatchewan border to Toronto and Montreal.
The crude oil pipeline would have had a diameter of 36 inches (910 mm) and a capacity of 525,000 barrels per day (83,500 m 3 /d). The condensate pipeline would have had a diameter of 20 inches (510 mm) with a capacity of 193,000 barrels per day (30,700 m 3 /d). In 2008 Enbridge expected these pipelines to be completed by 2015.

During the same time frame, the Trans Mountain Oil Pipe Line Company began looking at the Tote Road as a potential route for a pipeline between Edmonton and Vancouver. Construction began in 1952, and largely resulted in the destruction of the road along the pipeline's path. [10] Gradually, work progressed to reconstruct the highway.
