YXH Gateway

YXH Gateway is the newest commercial business park in Southeast Alberta located at the Medicine Hat Regional Airport.

As the gateway to the Badlands region, the Medicine Hat Regional Airport is the primary airport for Southeast Alberta and Southwest Saskatchewan with daily flights serviced by WestJet and private charters. Prominently located at the entry point on Crowsnest Pass Highway 3, YXH Gateway offers airside and groundside opportunities for land for sale and lease at the Medicine Hat Regional Airport.

The City of Medicine Hat recognizes the importance of a vibrant airport and its relation to not only economic growth but as an introduction to visitors into our community. Development at the entrance of the airport will directly service airline travelers and indirectly services the greater west employment sector as defined in the Municipal Development Plan. These commercial development amenities are highly visible to the 8,700+ vehicles per day that travel along Highway 3.

The west employment sector has been identified as a future growth node.

Highway 3 Twinning

Alberta Transportation and Economic Corridors (TEC) is completing the design to twin approximately 36 km of Highway 3, between 3 km east of Highway 885 and east of Highway 523 (Whitla [west of Seven Persons] to Medicine Hat). The project will refine design standards, access locations, and the staging requirements for four lanes.

This work, which will improve safety and enhance traffic flow and efficiency, will expand the highway from two undivided lanes in each direction to two (four total) divided lanes in each direction.
