Move along to your new thread.
Wear and Tear on roads in Canada.

Not the Theme of this thread...Thanks though.
Little dense aren’t ya…..


All the transport truck traffic causes congestion on the highway which is the reason for the road “improvements/closures..”

Hence the name of this thread.

Phase 4 of the Kicking Horse Canyon Project lies between the previously-completed Phase 3 West (Golden Hill to West Portal) and Phase 1 (Yoho Bridge) sections. The project will:

  • Upgrade approximately 4.8 kilometres of highway through the most challenging section of the canyon to improve safety
  • Realign 13 curves and widen the highway to four lanes with median barrier and wider shoulders to accommodate cyclists
  • Mitigate rock fall and avalanche hazards with bridges, rock catchment ditches and other measures
  • Add wildlife exclusion fencing and wildlife passage opportunities to reduce vehicle-animal collisions
  • Absolutely no mention of transport trucks causing congestion being the reason for this project????? Nothing to do with railways......
  • Move along!
