There is also a spur Highway 10X that lead from Highway 10 into the hamlet of Wayne near Drumheller. I don't know how to add it to the template without messing things up, so I'll leave it for more experienced hands. I'm not going to create a separate article for 10X, I'll just add it to the existing Alberta provincial highway 10 article. 23skidoo 05:37, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2006-09-01T05:37:00.000Z","author":"23skidoo","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-23skidoo-2006-09-01T05:37:00.000Z-Missing_highway","replies":[]}}-->
Can we also add rows for Highways 3X, 4X, 11X and 16X? Although they do not exist yet, they are future highway bypasses or realignments just like Highway 43X. Highway 3X includes the future Crowsnest Pass and Lethbridge bypasses. Highway 4X includes the eastern portion of the Lethbridge bypass. Highway 11X involves a future realignment of Highway 11 from 30 Avenue in Red Deer to east of Red Deer. Highway 16X includes the future Hinton, Edson and Lloydminster bypasses. These alignments can be seen by opening the 2008 Primary Highways, 1 to 216 Series Progress Chart external link on the Alberta Highways page.

I think that the template should be edited to have a category for Secondary Highways. There are now four Alberta Secondary Highways with Wikipedia articles (666, 734, 459, & 881). I haven't done this already because I don't know if there is supposed to be a consensus first before changing a template. --Windrider6 21:57, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-04-20T21:57:00.000Z","author":"Windrider6","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Windrider6-2007-04-20T21:57:00.000Z-Secondary_highways","replies":["c-Pomte-2007-04-20T23:39:00.000Z-Windrider6-2007-04-20T21:57:00.000Z","c-Qyd-2007-06-24T22:30:00.000Z-Windrider6-2007-04-20T21:57:00.000Z"]}}-->
Greetings – A while back, I changed the highway headings from "Primary Highways" and "Secondary Highways" to "Primary Highways, 1 to 216 Series" and "Primary Highways, 500 to 986 Series", but they appear to have been reverted back. Although I personally feel the traditional "Primary" and "Secondary" branding is more appropriate and logical, the Province of Alberta rebranded the highway designations approximately 10 years ago (or maybe slightly more recently). I believe this may have coincided with the Province taking back control of the 500 to 986 numbered highways. Not sure the motivation of the rebranding. Anyways, about 2.5 years ago I inquired about some mapping data from Alberta Transportation and the person who responded, in an unfortunately patronizing tone, that there were no longer secondary highways in Alberta, just two sets of primary highways – the 1 to 216 Series and 500 to 986 Series. See the two Primary Highway Series Progress Chart links I just added under the External Links header. This rebranding is probably the reason behind the disappearance of the "Primary" and "Secondary" text above the highway badges on highway signs over recent years.

Not even a month after the above discussion closed and all the appropriate changes across WP were made, Alberta Transportation (AT) rebranded its highways once again. On November 25, 2009, the new Highways Development and Protection Act was proclaimed to come into force on January 1, 2010. This new Act rebranded all primary highways in Alberta as provincial highways. (On a related note, a Freeways and Access Locations Designation Order was proclaimed in force on the same day as the Act, to come into effect on the same day as the Act).
Per section 1(1)(s) of the Act:
I sat on this for over a year primarily because I wanted to see if the 2010 versions of the highway progress charts reflected this rebranding before hastily advising that everything needs to be changed again, especially after all the effort that was expended the last time around. Both progress charts (1-216 and 500-986) were finally posted on AT's web site in late 2010, and both reflected the rebranding. In these progress charts, I also observed that the Series that formerly followed 1-216 and 500-986 had been dropped.
This more simple provincial designation is more logical and much less confusing than the last rebranding where primary was applied to what was previously and traditionally secondary. Therefore, I am going to start revising the applicable Alberta provincial highway articles to reflect this new rebranding. This will necessitate category and template revisions as well, but I would ask those who are more proficient in categories and templates to process these. I'll provide some time for further discussion on this before I jump in head first.

@Acefitt:, with all the good work you've been doing on Alberta freeway articles, I want to apprise you of the above discussion. In short, Alberta Transportation implemented highway designation rebrandings twice over the past couple decades.
117Avenue and I (mostly 117Avenue) implemented the ca. 2000 change in late 2009, only for AT to change the designation essentially as we just caught everything up. I can't speak for 117Avenue, but I never got around to implementing the second round at that time due to being winded from the recently completed previous effort, only doing less intensive minor edits to each highway article (such as this low hanging fruit). I never got back to implementing the more substantial and significant effort necessary at List of Alberta provincial highways, Category:Alberta Primary Highways, 1-216 series, Category:Alberta Primary Highways, 500/600 sub-series, Category:Alberta Primary Highways, 700/800 sub-series, Category:Alberta Primary Highways, 900 sub-series, etc. I'm guess now is the time to get back to work. In the meantime, please try to avoid use of the archaic primary/secondary highway terms in your edits to Alberta provincial highway articles.
