Construction is set to begin on the Province’s Highway 1 216th–264th Street Widening Project, which will help relieve congestion for drivers and accommodate more sustainable transportation options for all travellers.

Highway 8 between Merritt and Spences Bridge is now open to all vehicle traffic, restoring connectivity to residents, Indigenous communities and the local forestry and mining industries.

Construction has started on a major upgrade of the Phibbs Exchange in North Vancouver that will increase capacity, enhance safety and security, improve active transportation connections and support the evolution of transit service on the North Shore for decades to come.

The Province is advising drivers of snowfall warnings for many of B.C.’s major highways.

With colder temperatures in the forecast, the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure is readying Lower Mainland highways and bridges to keep people and goods moving safely and efficiently during inclement weather.

Regional air facilities that have vital services, such as wildfire suppression and medical evacuation (medevac) services, will get a boost through a new intake of the B.C. Air Access Program (BCAAP).
