B.C.’s Coquihalla Freeway might reopen to industrial site visitors by early as a substitute of late January after November’s disastrous flooding and landslides, Transportation Minister Rob Fleming stated Thursday.
Greater than 100 items of heavy tools are staged alongside the main route, Fleming stated, and crews are making “large progress.”
So long as the climate cooperates, he stated, the freeway would reopen sooner than beforehand forecast.
“It’s outstanding given the size of the injury,” he added.
The freeway suffered catastrophic injury throughout the first atmospheric river that hit southern B.C. on Nov. 14 and 15. Greater than 100 kilometres of freeway must be repaired.

NDP freakshow.😁
Dr. 666 Bonnie 😁
Exactly how temporary is it and how safe is it. Will the next high water take it out again??
The NDPs response to this disaster has in itself been a disaster.
So called First nations do not own this land. They should thank us we let them use it.
We are ruled by idiots who believe they are God's gift to the peasants. But people are awakening and will soon remind these people that they are OUR servants—not rulers—hired to run things up which is the only thing they're not doing at all.
Minister, I have a question…
Moving forward, will there be infrastructure upgrades to routes 99 and highway 3 to widen and straighten these routes so the province isn't in such a precarious position when the two primary routes to and from the lower mainland have been disabled for some reason or another?
The importance for an alternate truck route into the interior that does not involve the Fraser Valley between hope and Chilliwack has been made pretty clear….
the question how much of this is related to the forest fire burnout areas which it is well known would wash away into the creek and river valleys during torrential rains which are not uncommon in bc. then if realized that this threat existed why would the road crossings of bridges and culverts not be reinforced with large amounts of extra large /blasted rip rap on the footings of the pillars of bridges and on the front side banks of culverts and any other locations deemed necessary by the engineers and associates. bc is full of unstable mountainous terrain and torrential rains of this magnitude are pretty common during October ,November, December although the last few decades were less so in most areas but it looks like the good ole weather pattern from the 60's/70's is coming back. maybe that magnetic north pole moving towards the Russian mainland is affecting it. like when Greenland builds up a massive cold event it soon slips down into Canada and freezes it cold. yeah and climate change ? high altitude air pollution is a thing but not researched much.
