Highways in Canada

[Mininari]

I imagine another factor is now the holiday travel factor is behind us, and they're getting highway 1 back open too through the Fraser Canyon. So, the highway system is slooooowly lurching back to functionality, and hey, I don't blame them -- they're doing all these repairs in the dead of winter.

The real challenge is going to be if the permanent repairs drag out through the entire summer -- that will make summer holiday travel challenging, especially with the towed RVs jostling with 18-wheelers. Lets hope this torrid pace of 'sooner-than-expect' continues with these repairs.

I have no insight into whether they're going to be changing any designs on these structures to cope with higher return-frequency streamflow events with these repairs. Anyone know if that factors in? If so, it will make permanent repairs take longer for sure.
