Exciting News, Behchokǫ̀!
The Behchokǫ̀ Seniors Duplex and Behchokǫ̀ Singles Duplex project is now ready and complete! As a Housing NWT project, these new homes provide much needed housing for the community, offering comfortable and modern living spaces for residents.
Diesel-powered equipment is an essential part of many workplaces, from construction sites to service garages. While we often focus on the hazards of gasoline engine exhaust, it’s just as important to recognize the risks associated with diesel exhaust. Exposure to diesel fumes—whether short-term or long-term—can have serious health consequences, including respiratory issues and even an increased risk of cancer.
Uncovering the great work done by Tłı̨chǫ Property Management (TPM) crew members all year long. They have gotten the duplex in Behchokǫ̀ ready to turn over to Tłı̨chǫ Government (TG)! The ongoing infrastructure projects TPM completes for TG are helping build our Tłı̨chǫ communities by providing TG with housing options. In turn, this makes our communities even better places to live!
As climate change disrupts traditional freeze cycles, the work to build and maintain winter roads has never been more complex. Extreme temperature shifts lengthen freeze periods prolonging portage construction, while simultaneously creating the potential for extreme ice conditions such as thermal expansion which can create pressure ridges or thermal shock which creates deep cracking weakening the ice posing critical safety concerns. Delays in freezing and earlier thaws mean construction teams must work faster and smarter.
Teamwork is essential! Here’s how our project managers and teams approach building the Tlicho Winter Road with a short construction season that makes all the timelines more urgent! Tlicho Engineering and Environmental Services (TEES) ensures all the necessary work is done safely, efficiently, and with environmental protections built in:
1. Route Selection and Planning:
o Routes are chosen based on traditional knowledge, environmental assessments, and logistical considerations to minimize risks and maximize accessibility.
2. Ice Profiling and Preparation:
