Several projects to upgrade the Trans-Canada Highway east of Golden have been completed, ensuring this important route will be safer and more reliable for travellers this winter.

The upgrades include four-laning 3.8 kilometres of the Golden Hill to West Portal section; adding a new interchange and wildlife overpass at Golden Donald Upper Road; as well as reducing the highway grade and improving wildlife protection by adding a special crossing, fencing, and guards on access roads. The one-kilometre Golden Hill multi-use path is also complete, giving cyclists and pedestrians a safe, alternative route between the town and the Golden Donald Upper Road area.

These completed projects are part of the $68.5-million Golden Hill to West Portal Project, under Phase 3 of the larger Kicking Horse Canyon project, and were jointly funded by the federal, provincial and municipal governments. The Government of Canada is investing up to $32.3 million under the Building Canada Fund, the province is providing $35.63 million, and the Town of Golden is contributing $570,000.

The final piece of work underway in this phase of the project is an upgrade to 1.2 kilometres at the West Portal, just east of Golden, which is expected to be complete by November 2012. Improvements to 8.8 kilometres from Brake Check to Yoho National Park were completed earlier this year, and nine kilometres were upgraded previously under Phases 1 and 2 of the project.

In addition, a number of new and refurbished electronic message signs that provide timely information on traffic conditions through this Rocky Mountain section of the Trans-Canada Highway are now up and running. Messages on the signs can be changed remotely as quickly as conditions change and the information is linked directly to the Drive BC system at: http://www.drivebc.ca/

The Kicking Horse Canyon/Trans-Canada Corridor project is improving safety and reliability for travellers as well as for commerce leading to our communities and trade ports. More information is available at: www.kickinghorsecanyon.ca

Since 2001, over $2 billion has been invested in the Kootenay region to improve and maintain roads and bridges, broaden cycling networks, expand airports and transit, and support community infrastructure improvements.

Quotes:

David Wilks, Member of Parliament for Kootenay-Columbia -

"Our government is proud to invest in projects that create jobs and improve highway infrastructure in B.C. These important Trans-Canada Highway upgrades will improve safety, reduce travel time and promote long-term economic growth in the region."

Blair Lekstrom, Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure -

"The completion of these projects is a major milestone in Phase 3 of the Kicking Horse Canyon project, with only one final portion to go. Improvements to this part of the Trans-Canada Highway are increasing the safety and efficiency of this corridor for both motorists and cyclists, and improving the flow of goods through the region and mobility within the community."

Town of Golden Mayor Christina Benty -

"The new section of four lane highway and electronic message signs greatly improve the safety of residents and visitors who travel the Trans-Canada near Golden. And I know the new path up Golden Hill will be popular with local families. It's an excellent addition to the many outdoor recreational opportunities we enjoy here in Kicking Horse Country."

COMMUNIQUÉ

Les derniers projets du canyon kicking horse sont terminés

GOLDEN, C.-B. - Plusieurs travaux ont été achevés dans le cadre de projets visant à améliorer la route transcanadienne à l'est de Golden. Ces travaux rendront cette route importante plus sécuritaire et plus fiable pour les voyageurs qui l'emprunteront cet hiver.

Ces améliorations comprennent l'élargissement à quatre voies d'un tronçon routier de 3,8 kilomètres entre Golden Hill et West Portal, l'ajout d'un nouvel échangeur et d'un passage pour la faune à Golden Donald Upper Road, ainsi que la diminution de la pente de la route et l'amélioration de la protection de la faune grâce à l'ajout d'un passage spécial, de clôtures et de garde-fous. Le sentier polyvalent de un kilomètre de Golden Hill est aussi terminé. Il offre aux cyclistes et aux piétons une route de rechange sécuritaire entre la ville et le secteur de Golden Donald Upper Road.

Ces travaux maintenant achevés font partie d'un projet de 68,5 millions de dollars entre Golden Hill et West Portal, qui s'inscrit dans le cadre de la phase 3 du projet d'ensemble du canyon Kicking Horse. Ils ont été financés par les gouvernements fédéral et provincial ainsi que par des administrations municipales. Le gouvernement du Canada versera un maximum de 32,3 millions de dollars provenant du Fonds Chantiers Canada, la Colombie-Britannique, 35,63 millions, et la ville de Golden, 570 000 $.

La dernière partie des travaux en cours dans le cadre de cette troisième phase consiste à apporter des améliorations sur un tronçon de 1,2 kilomètre à West Portal, à l'est de Golden. La fin des travaux est prévue d'ici novembre 2012. Des travaux d'amélioration ont été terminés plus tôt cette année sur un tronçon de 8,8 kilomètres entre Brake Check et le parc national Yoho, et sur un tronçon de 9 kilomètres dans le cadre des phases 1 et 2 du projet.

De plus, des panneaux à affichage électronique neufs ou remis en neuf fournissant des renseignements en temps opportun sur les conditions de circulation sur cette section de la Transcanadienne dans les Rocheuses sont maintenant opérationnels. Les renseignements sur les panneaux peuvent être changés à distance et mis à jour régulièrement, et sont directement transmis au système Drive BC: http://www.drivebc.ca/

Le projet du canyon Kicking Horse et du corridor transcanadien contribue à améliorer la sécurité et la fiabilité de la route pour ceux qui voyagent à bord de véhicules privés, mais aussi pour les conducteurs de véhicules commerciaux en direction de nos collectivités et de nos ports commerciaux. On trouvera plus d'information au www.kickinghorsecanyon.ca (en anglais seulement).

Depuis 2001, plus de 2 milliards de dollars ont été investis dans la région de Kootenay pour l'amélioration et l'entretien de routes et de ponts, l'élargissement de pistes cyclables, l'agrandissement d'aéroports et de réseaux de transport en commun, ainsi que l'amélioration d'infrastructures communautaires.

Pour consulter les fils de nouvelles du gouvernement de la Colombie-Britannique, visitez le www.gov.bc.ca/connect (en anglais seulement).

" Notre gouvernement est fier d'investir dans ces projets qui créent des emplois et qui améliorent l'infrastructure routière en Colombie-Britannique ", a indiqué M. David Wilks, député fédéral de Kootenay-Columbia. " Ces importants travaux d'amélioration de la route transcanadienne en accroîtront la sécurité, réduiront la durée des déplacements et stimuleront la croissance économique à long terme dans la région. "

" L'achèvement de ces projets constitue une étape majeure de la phase 3 du projet du canyon Kicking Horse, auquel il ne reste plus qu'une phase à réaliser ", a mentionné M. Blair Lekstrom, ministre des Transports et de l'Infrastructure de la Colombie-Britannique. " Les travaux d'amélioration de ce tronçon de la route transcanadienne contribueront à accroître la sécurité et l'efficacité de ce corridor pour les automobilistes et les cyclistes ainsi qu'à améliorer la circulation des marchandises dans la région et la mobilité au sein de la communauté. "

" La nouvelle section de la route à quatre voies et les panneaux à affichage électronique contribueront grandement à améliorer la sécurité des résidants et des visiteurs qui emprunteront la Transcanadienne près de Golden ", a déclaré Mme Christina Benty, mairesse de la ville de Golden. " Et je sais que le nouveau sentier de Golden Hill sera très utilisé par les familles locales. Ce sentier s'ajoute aux nombreuses possibilités de pratiquer des activités de plein air ici, dans la région de Kicking Horse. "
