People travelling the Highway 1-Malahat corridor now have a smoother, faster journey with the completion of repairs to the Tunnel Hill section that was washed out by heavy rain and floods in 2021.

As the weather in British Columbia transitions into fall, people can expect seasonal stormy conditions and are encouraged to take steps to prepare for the increased rainfall and the possibility of flooding.

The Province is supporting B.C.’s farmers, communities and First Nations with a new fund to help with increased planning and preparation for agricultural emergencies, while strengthening food security for British Columbians.

People travelling in the evenings along the Malahat section of Highway 1 near the Tunnel Hill project north of Victoria should expect delays due to repairs as the project moves toward completion.

B.C. farmers and ranchers can better prepare for and mitigate impacts of climate change, while continuing to support the province’s food security and a sustainable environment through funding from the governments of Canada and British Columbia. 

The Ktunaxa, Secwépemc and Syilx Okanagan Nations and their members will benefit from new interim agreements that share revenue generated from the Columbia River Treaty.
