Background
The Edmonton Remand Centre (ERC) is a correctional facility in Goodridge Corners, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. A pre-trial detention facility, it is operated by the Ministry of Justice and Solicitor General of Alberta. It replaces a facility opened in 1979 in downtown Edmonton. After overcrowding and additional bed space was required, a second facility was proposed and completed in 2012. The new facility, differentiated as the New Edmonton Remand Centre (NERC), opened on April 12, 2013.
