Projects Image 1

This project is consistent with British Columbia's long-term vision of the four-lane Cariboo Connector between Cache Creek and Prince George. The Cariboo Connector supports growth in truck traffic related to the harvesting of wood affected by the pine beetle, and the development of the Port of Prince Rupert.




All financial figures are anticipated federal contributions for projects, most of which are cost-shared with important contributions from partners, including British Columbia and other western provincial and municipal governments, ports and railways.

All projects are subject to funding commitments of all partners, completion of due diligence, contribution agreements and final federal project approval.
