Sea-to-Sky Highway

British Columbia’s Ministry of Transportation is improving the safety, reliability and capacity of the spectacular Sea-to-Sky highway which links communities from West Vancouver to Whistler. The project includes highway widening and straightening for improved sightlines. With added passing lanes and other design innovations, hazards will be reduced and capacity increased. Improvements will be complete by the end of 2009.

Prince George South Weigh Scale Relocation and Associated Four-laning Project, Prince George

The Prince George South Weigh Scale and Four-Laning Project includes the design and construction of a new state-of-the-art weigh scale and the twinning of approximately 5 km of Highway 97 approximately 35km south of the City of Prince George.

The weigh scale will now be equipped with Weigh-in-motion (WIM) and Automatic Vehicle Identification (AVI) technology allowing safe legal trucks to bypass the weigh scale at highway speeds, improving the efficiency goods movement through the use of electronic clearance.

This project will be jointly funded by the Cariboo Connector program and the federal government.

Okanagan Valley Corridor - Bentley Road to Okanagan Lake Park

You are viewing high-definition images from the Bentley Road to Okanagan Lake Park construction sites. There are two cameras located on this project; one south at South Goat Bluff and one north at La Punta Norte. These images are refreshed every hour.  To access zoom and pan controls, click the thumbnail image.

The project consists of constructing 7 km of four-lane highway to 100km/design standards between Bentley Road and Okanagan Lake Park.  Approximately 3 km of frontage roads will be constructed to consolidate accesses off the highway.

The Federal Government is contributing $22 million from the Building Canada plan toward this phase of work, with British Columbia investing the remaining $32 million of the estimated $54 million capital cost.

Work on the Bentley Road to Okanagan Lake Park project began in February 2008. 
The contractor is working to have four lanes open and paved by fall 2009.  The contractual completion date is June 2010.
