Look at this one here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tranbc/...57716918592192 It is all BC government photos. Twining to Chase west is going full steam and it will be done next year. After that they should continue east through the village. |
^Thanks for the link to all the photos of the twinning outside of Chase, it’s too bad it’s such a short stretch. Hopefully they continue to 4-lane east of Kamloops on a regular basis to keep extending that section eastward.
As for the 4-laning around Rogers pass, I couldn’t find any info on it but I too have driven through there and seen it happening. Found info regarding expansion around Illecillewaet and Quartz Creek Bridge but nothing specifically about Rogers Pass area. I did stumble upon this dated (25 years) comprehensive report that I thought was interesting: http://https://www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/driving-and-transportation/reports-and-reference/reports-and-studies/rocky-mountains/kicking-horse/corridor-management/studies-summary-9610.pdf |

The meat is between slides 63 and 68. It’s interesting that Golden’s meant to be bypassed (unless that’s already the Northern Bypass). |

Here is another interesting slide from Parks Canada: https://pc.gc.ca/-/media/pn-np/bc/yo...t-overview.pdf Proposal for twining by Filed. Please note the pedestrian traffic light by Filed Visitor Center. I choked and heart attack later. There must be another way. Arrrrgh:hell: |
Send your email demanding an interchange there as many of us have.
I wonder when we will get an update on that project. |

^^ ^ Yeah I submitted my feedback to that months ago as well. Crazy to be adding traffic lights to the TCH as part of an “upgrade”. :hell: |

^Damn! :(
I thought we might be getting some “surprise” twinning. |

Is BC just too far away to care? |

Speaking of federal funding, has B.C. received it for KHC Phase 4 yet? I wonder whether that's why the feds don't wanna put in more...
|
Not sure if everyone here is already aware, but they seem to be providing updates about the project on this site: https://www.kickinghorsecanyon.ca/about/news/
Latest update is from Dec 18th regarding a new potable water station. Built because the current source will be inaccessible during construction. Things actually seem to be moving now, haha. Is it safe to assume that this summer we will finally start to see major roadworks on KH phase 4? |

Kicking Horse is under way. Article from Global. it is going to be big :cheers: |
The Kicking Horse Canyon Phase 4 project will be underway soon, with a month long highway closure coming in the spring. Traffic will be rerouted through Radium and Kootenay NP. In preparation, a new roundabout has been completed at the 93/95 junction in Radium, complete with fancy freeway style sign gantries at each entrance.
