Re-announcement of a long delayed project ?
http://https://globalnews.ca/news/5108787/trans-canada-highway-funding-improvements-bc/ Kind of funny how they describe it as a "Massive" funding announcement. |

Any highway 1 project should at least be 10km in length and preferably 50km or so in length. At least that would be a far more realistic timeframe for actually completing it in our lifetimes. This goes for the federal government as well through the national parks. No more 2km and 4km long projects. And what happened to the interchange in Golden as part of phase 5 on the Kicking Horse project? I don’t understand why we can’t build a highway like we did with the Coquihalla and the Okanagan Connector (Hell, even the Island Highway was over 100km of new 4 lane divided highway I believe). |

I don't know if I would trust the Feds to get highways right.

We shouldn't be building roads like we did in the past. It's not sustainable. If you want to see what happens when you try to set one standard for entire road type, you should see the complexities and costs to build I-70 through Colorado and Utah. |
In a world with infinite money, I'd agree with corndogger, but in a world where money is limited I agree with Mazrim. The problem really though is there just isn't enough money and it is unfair to assign the costs of the TCH to where it is geographically located. It's a national highway, so it should be adequately funded by the federal government, and since BC and Ontario's sections are much more expensive to build they should get proportionally more from the national pot, and Manitoba and Saskatchewan proportionally less.
