Also what is the TCH like in NFLD? There must be some 4 lane sections there, especialy in the Avalon.

The NB section is all 4 lanes from the NS border to the QC border with no traffic lights. There are two at grade rail crossings in Moncton, but outside of that, it's completely free-flow between the two borders with 110km/hr posted speed limit. The only non-twinned highways that remain an issue in NB now are Hwy 7 which connects the TCH to Saint John, and Hwy 1 between Saint John and the US border, though the latter looks like it will be twinned much sooner than Hwy 7.
As for NL, I think there is some wider/twinned sections around Saint John, but I'm pretty sure most of the TCH is still 2-lane. It's been a long time since I've been in a car on the island though, so I'm just going by people I know in Fredericton from NL.
