Traffic Management
Highway is fully open with 4 lanes and 100 km/h speed limit
As of late July 31, 2024, the Trans-Canada Highway through the Kicking Horse Canyon is operating as a fully-function 4-lane highway, posted at 100 km/h.
Some traffic management will be required in late summer / early fall to accommodate post-construction touch-ups. This work will include some landscaping, with the planting of some trees and shrubs being postponed until cooler weather to help them survive and become better-established.
The project team appreciates the patience and support shown by those who have been affected by the traffic management required to safely carry out the Kicking Horse Canyon Phase 4 Project. That patience is now rewarded with a wider, safer and more reliable highway.
