BC: Phase Four of the Kicking Horse Canyon Project, which widened the Trans-Canada Highway #1 east of Golden to four lanes and taking several years to complete, was completed on July 31!
Aa a result, the speed limit on this 5 km section, which used to be 40 km/hr through 13 tight cliff-edge turns, is now 100 km. The former 2 lane highway is now 4 lanes wide with a bike lane in each direction, and additional rockfall protections.
