Remote yard and site security in Calgary
Live agents monitor truck yards, distribution centres and construction sites in Calgary and Rocky View County, including Balzac and Conrich, 24/7/365.
Local and live
Calgary's inland port, from Balzac to Stoney Trail
Calgary Economic Development describes the city as Western Canada's inland port, built on road, rail and air links, and says Calgary International Airport (YYC) handles 75% of Alberta's air cargo shipments. Stoney Trail (Highway 201), the 100-kilometre freeway that circles the city and was completed in December 2023, serves as a bypass for the congested Deerfoot Trail and 16 Avenue N. It also forms part of the CANAMEX Corridor, which links Calgary to Edmonton and Interstate 15 in the United States.
North and east of the city, Rocky View County has logistics clusters in Balzac, Conrich and Janet with major retail distribution centres. Balzac sits just west of the QEII Highway at Highway 566, about 12 kilometres south of Airdrie. CN's Calgary Logistics Park intermodal terminal, also in Rocky View County, is open 24 hours a day. The yards that serve it and the distribution centres hold loaded trailers and containers waiting for pickup, which is where live monitoring and remote gate operations help.
Construction is the other big exposure. The Calgary Police Service counted 371 construction site thefts in 2025, up from 308 in 2024, and a CPS sergeant linked the rise to the city's record level of new construction that year. Équité Association's cargo theft data also shows about 375 thefts in Calgary between 2020 and 2025. On a Sigma-monitored site, AI flags people and vehicles after hours, an agent checks the live video and talks intruders down right away, and police are called when needed, with video evidence and a report to follow.

Can you watch a construction site in one of Calgary's new communities?
