You get here a good example for Quebec of a province that doesn't focus on REAL priorities...I mean as a province of 8.3M, we should be at forefront in infrastructures IMO.
In 2020 I will be.... 32 if you ask 
Though, A85 is already one of my favourite Autoroute in the province. Very scenic. Some views are epic aswell, such as looking down a steep grade and seeing a huge lake  |
The highway through New Brunswick I believe was essentially complete in 2006 or so. Before the 1990s, however, it was largely a 2 lane highway that was narrow and winding - and VERY dangerous.
I believe the first section - Amherst to Moncton - was built in the early 1990s, and Moncton to Sussex around 1998 (part of that was itself bypassed). Other sections were added in the late 1990s and early 2000s, with the last section completed in 2007.
Once we get to 2020, it should be a TCH freeway from Renfrew to Antigonish, a distance of about 1,700 km.
