One of the most outstanding auto routes in the
world is now yours to explore. Phase | of the magnif-
icent Coquihalla Highway joins the Fraser Canyon
and the Hope-Princeton routes as a third gateway
into British Columbia's vast Interior. From Hope to
Merritt, and connecting to Kamloops, the Coquihalia
opens up some of Canada’s most spectacular
scenery, and shaves off an hour's driving along the
way.

This four-lane, 115 km (71 mi) divided freeway
offers more than magnificent scenery. By making the
Interior more easily accessible, the expanded high-
way system is helping encourage commercial devel-
opment and B.C.’s tourism industry.

Wildlife and unrivalled scenery abound in the area,
so be sure to bring your camera and plenty of film
Pack a picnic basket to enjoy at one of the convenient
rest stops along the way. However, there are no gas
stations so be sure to top up in Merritt or Hope.

A colourful history!

First.explored by the Hudson's Bay Company, the
Coquihalla Pass was the sole domain of trappers,
hunters and fur traders until the late 1850's, when
prospectors entered the area in search of gold. The
Pass later saw the Kettle Valley railway line put through
and, after it was closed in 1960, two major pipelines,
one oil, one natural gas, were developed along with
local logging operations. Now, with touring and
commercial drivers discovering this fast new route to
the Interior, the future of this area has never looked
brighter.

SHAVING TIME - SAVING MONEY

e Phase | - Hope to Merritt is 115 kilometres (71
miles) - four lanes, divided highway with extra
lanes on grades

Posted speed limit is 100 km/h

Planning the Coquihalla began in the late
1960's to relieve future traffic congestion on
the Hope-Princeton and the Fraser Canyon

Construction was accelerated in 1984 to be
completed in time for EXPO 86.

Construction created more than 26,000 direct
and indirect jobs.

The distance between Kamloops and Van-
couver is shortened by 80 kilometres — saving
one hour in driving time. Mittions of dottars wilt
be saved each year in vehicle operating costs
for coramercial and recreational drivers.

Drive Coquihalla circle tours

With the Coquihalia opening, you can enjoy circle
tours using all three highways — the Fraser Canyon, the
Hope-Princeton and the Coquihalla. The Fraser Canyon
highway with its spectacular scenic viewpoints and
world-famous Hell's Gate. Circle through Kamloops via
Cache Creek, for a rest and excellent diniag“The
gorgeous Hope-Princeton through wildly beautiful

Parka stop in bustling Princeton, by the Simil-
kameen River, then up to Merritt with its sprawling cattle
ranches and nearby lakes teaming with rainbow trout.
Plan a circle tour driving the Coquihalila one way. An
incredible experience for your visitors this summer.

Engineering feats as
spectacular as the scenery

Avalanche zones. Rockslide areas. Delicate eco-
systems. Raging rivers. Those are just some of the
concerns addressed by the men and women who built
the Coquihalla.

As you travel this route, note the stands of timber
that have been left to maintain scenic beauty and to offer
protection against avalanches. “Avalaunchers” (artillery
guns mounted on tracked snow vehicles) are used to
release avalanches under controlled conditions, thus
reducing any threat of them occurring along the high-
way. Special bridge footings are placed well above
stream beds in areas where fiooding is common. Excep-
tional care was taken to ensure the environment and
wildlife of the area were well looked after during and after
construction. For instance, sections of three rivers were
actually relocated. 10,000 fish were retrieved from the
original channels and safely introduced to the rerouted
rivers.

Phase Il and Phase Illtocome!

The Coquihalla Highway between Hope and Merritt
is just the first phase of a road construction project
designed to make travel through the Interior easier and
quicker.

By Fall 1987, Phase 1! will be complete, extending the
Coquihalla another 75 km (46 mi) to Kamloops. The
drive from Hope to Kamloops will then be 80 km (50 mi)
shorter than before the Coquihalla was built. The
completion of Phase I!!, will see the Coquihalla Highway
reach Peachiand in the Okanagan Valley.

“In British Columbia,
maintaining and improving
our transportation system
has always played a key
role in the development of
our economic potential.
Like each of the other
routes into the Interior, the
Coquihalla will help open
the door to growth and
new investment.”

Hon. Alex V. Fraser, Minister
