HIGHWAYS REPORT REPORT OF THE ASSISTANT DEPUTY MINISTER Victoria, B.C., August 23,1965. Mr. H. T. Miard, Deputy Minister of Highways, Parliament Buildings, Victoria, B.C. Sir,—Herewith are submitted district reports for the fiscal year 1964/65. A statement of the mileages of highways shows that the total length of Provincial highways is 25,639 miles and the total length of classified highways is 865 miles. The Provincial highways are comprised of 3,752 miles of trunk highways, 1,845 miles of main highways, and 20,042 miles of other highways. The classified highways (arterial and secondary) are comprised of 472 miles of trunk highways, 191 miles of main highways, and 202 miles of other highways. The total expenditure on maintenance of roads, ferries, and bridges was $21,899,700. Included in the cost of maintenance is an expenditure of $3,959,672 for snow removal. This is an increase of more than $1,400,000 over the previous year and reflects the severe winter conditions throughout the Province. The total lengths of roads kept open was 20,263 miles. The total mileage of roads constructed or reconstructed by day labour was 389. Improvements and minor betterments were made to 748 miles. The number of ferries under the supervision of the Department is 51. These ferries carried 1,990,257 vehicles and 4,993,015 passengers including drivers. There were 682 right-of-way settlements negotiated during the year. The total cost of these was $2,681,682. Again there was a substantial increase in the number of subdivision plans handled and also in the number of permits issued in the 1964 calendar year. The total number of subdivisions handled was 4,341, and 821 of these were adjacent to controlled-access highways. The number of permits issued for entrances on controlled-access highways was 391 and for entrances on non-controlled highways was 983. There were 2,307 permits issued for other works on Crown lands. F. A. MacLean, Assistant Deputy Minister. C 10 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 REPORT OF THE CHIEF ENGINEER Victoria, B.C., August 23,1965. Mr. H. T. Miard, Deputy Minister of Highways, Parliament Buildings, Victoria, B.C. Sir,—Submitted herewith are reports from the Senior Bridge Engineer, the Design and Planning Engineer, the Director of Construction, and the Senior Paving Engineer on the activities of the branches under their supervision during the past fiscal year. The total length of roads constructed or reconstructed by contract was 91 miles. Of this amount, only 3 miles was on the Trans-Canada Highway, construction now being virtually completed. The length of plant-mix pavement laid during the year was 328 miles. In addition to this there was laid a total of 222 miles of road-mix and pulvimix pavement. Construction was completed on 28 bridges, the most noteworthy being the Port Mann Bridge on the Trans-Canada Highway over the Fraser River. There were also 17 bridges under construction but not completed at the end of the year. Expenditures on construction were reduced, and this was due principally to the completion of the Port Mann Bridge and other costly structures on the Trans- Canada Highway. The length of final highway location surveys completed was 271 miles, and the length of office design complete with estimates was 303 miles. Of the latter, 9 miles were urban street design. A considerable number of preliminary soils investigations for new route locations and 49 investigations for bridge foundations were carried out during the year. Investigations were made also on two large landslides and remedial action taken. Twenty-two traffic signals were installed and nine grade railway crossings were equipped with automatic warning-signals. Lane-use signals were installed on the three-lane Lions Gate Bridge and Stanley Park Causeway. Lighting was provided in three tunnels and also at several intersections and interchanges. D. D. Godfrey, Chief Engineer. Port Mann Bridge, Trans-Canada Highway No. 401 C 12 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 REPORT OF THE SENIOR BRIDGE ENGINEER The outstanding event of the year in the field of bridge construction was unquestionably the completion and opening to traffic of the monumental Port Mann Bridge on the Trans-Canada Highway just east of Vancouver. This four-lane high-speed structure with its stiffened tied-arch main span and North America's first " orthotopic " steel deck has attracted the attention of the world's bridge- builders and has in fact lately been officially recognized as foremost among major bridges built recently in Canada for " the creative use of steel. " Spanning the mighty Fraser River near its mouth, this bridge now dominates the landscape and is contributing tremendously to the economic welfare of the adjacent metropolitan and suburban areas. Although eclipsed by the Port Mann Bridge in magnitude, some 27 smaller but still important bridges were completed during the period under review, and a further 17 such structures were in course of construction at the conclusion of the year. The total gross expenditure on bridge construction of $7,172,000 compares with an expenditure of $15,760,000 last year, the decrease being a reflection of the completion of the Port Mann Bridge and of the many costly structures on the Trans-Canada Highway in Burnaby Municipality and elsewhere. The appended tabulations give detailed information of the structures completed and of those under construction, while a perusal of these tabulations will reveal the scattered nature of our bridge-building operations. Construction of the major bridges across the Columbia River at Kinnaird and the Kootenay River at Brilliant is proceeding, as is that of the important structures over the North Thompson River at Barriere and the Kootenay River at Fort Steele, while the unique pre- stressed concrete suspension bridge over the Peace River at Hudson Hope was successfully completed and now stands as further evidence of British Columbia's pioneering proclivities in bridge-building. The twin-tunnel underpass carrying the Southern Trans-Canada Highway under the Canadian Pacific Railway near Greenwood was completed and opened to traffic, thus removing the long-standing dangerous bottleneck at this location associated with the former narrow, ill-aligned tunnel. The year saw considerable bridge-building activity not only in the Lower Mainland area and on Vancouver Island, where six bridges were strengthened and widened to full modern standards, but also on the North Thompson Highway, the Kootenay-Columbia Highway, the Northern Trans-Provincial Highway, and the Terrace-Kitimat Highway, thus indicating the intensive effort being made to improve the highway system in these more remote parts of the Province. Our advance planning over this period was directed largely to the design of structures for construction in these remoter areas. While some damage to a number of bridges was suffered due to overheight and (or) overweight loads and a few minor obsolescent timber bridges were lost by flood action, it can be reported that British Columbia was spared the great loss of bridges which occurs when natural disasters hit other areas of North America. The material-supply situation was satisfactory during the period reviewed, as was the competitive attitude on the part of contractors bidding on bridge-construction work. Weather conditions were generally conducive to construction operations, and the Department's district forces maintained their tradition of rapid and efficient repairs or replacement of such of our older timber bridges as called for attention. REPORT OF SENIOR BRIDGE ENGINEER C 13 While the Bridge Engineer's staff performed efficiently in the design and supervision of construction during the year, the policy of retaining the services of private consulting engineers to augment our own efforts was continued, and the design of several large structures intended for future construction is presently entrusted to such consultants. Notwithstanding the mammoth job of bridge construction that has been performed in the Province during recent years, there remains an equally mammoth job ahead if the highway system is to keep abreast of the constantly increasing demands made on it by the expanding economy of the Province. The bridge-construction programme is designed to match the need. C 14 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 Q W H B H Vi rn o o § o< o Q W H U D c-. H >o to vo oS U a\ i—i M _ O Oi *^ < u Vi < ►J l Oh f?

The mileage of work on the Trans- Canada Highway was comparatively small this year, as the only major work required was to complete approximately 1 mile of the multi-lane section (Route No. 401) and approximately 0.5 mile of the three tunnel sections in the Fraser River Canyon at Yale, Ferrabee, and Alexandra. A short revision is still in progress at Yoho Bridge. Route No. 401, from West Vancouver to Rosedale via the Second Narrows Bridge, was paved and opened in May, 1964. Project No. 1100 on the Salmo-Creston Cut-off, Southern Trans-Canada Highway, was completed and paved, although the cut-off was opened to the public last year. Two projects, Nos. 1285 and 1341, on the Rossland-Sheep Lake Cut-off (Route No. 3b) were practically completed, and the remaining contract (Project No. 1099) was completed and base processed (5.05 miles). The 18-mile route was completed sufficiently to open to the public in November, 1964. Project No. 1357 on the Prince George By-pass was completed, and one lift of bituminous plant-mixed base process applied. The by-pass (via the new Fraser River Bridge) was opened to the public during the year. Two widening contracts were started on the John Hart-Peace River Highway. Project No. 1358 (18.77 miles), Mile 163 to Mile 184 north of Prince George, is 71 per cent completed, and Project No. 1489 (8.53 miles) has just been awarded. When these two sections are paved, the entire highway will be paved (256 miles) from Prince George to Dawson Creek. Reconstruction is in progress on the Chetwynd-Hudson Hope Road via the new Peace River Bridge, which is now open. The most northerly of the three projects, Section 1 (12.67 miles), is 77 per cent completed. The other two contracts, south to Chetwynd, have been awarded for completion in 1966. This 41-mile road will be the main access to the Portage Mountain (Peace River) Dam site. The major work in the next few years will be the Yellowhead Route on the North Thompson and Northern Trans-Provincial Highways. The work is well under way, with Project No. 1361, Vavenby to McMurphy, completed this year (14.80 miles), and the next three contracts started, from McMurphy to Cedarside (89.12 miles). The remaining two contracts, to the Alberta Border (62.53 miles), have been advertised, and will be awarded early in April. On the Northern Trans-Provincial Highway between Prince George and McBride, work has commenced or been completed on all sections of the 89.81-mile gap between Willow River and West Twin Creek. A 34.10-mile contract (Project No. 1476) was let for complete grading between Willow River and Hungary Creek. A 23.22-mile contract for clearing and grubbing (Project No. 1477) was let between Hungary Creek and Dome Creek. It is anticipated a grading contract will be let between Hungary Creek and Ptarmigan Creek (33.44 miles) late in 1965. Two other grading contracts have been under way for approximately 18 months—Project No. 1382 (10.04 miles) and Project No. 1290 (12.39 miles). They are 18 and 89 per cent complete. The remaining sections were either completed previously or are existing roads. Construction of the approaches to the proposed crossing of the Fraser at McBride is under way. Bridge construction will commence next year. C 22 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 Reconstruction is well under way on the Northern Trans-Provincial Highway east of Terrace to West Boulder Creek, the only major section not yet reconstructed west of Prince George. Two projects (totalling 11 miles) have been completed, two projects (9 miles) have been started, and two clearing and grubbing projects (31 miles) have just been awarded. Reconstruction contracts on this section will be awarded later next year. One other section, Project No. 1379, Mudflat Creek Overhead to Seaton (7.77 miles), is 64 per cent completed. The 30-mile section of reconstruction on the Island Highway south of Sayward (Projects Nos. 1215 and 1216), started in 1961, was completed, and 15 miles bituminous base processed. Progress on the Stewart-Cassiar Highway is as follows: Completed (gravel) and open, Stewart to Hanna Creek (Mile 47); almost completed to South Bell- Irving River (Mile 58); clearing and grubbing in progress to North Bell-Irving River (Mile 96). The next 51-mile section to Burrage River (Mile 147) has not yet been started. Mile 147 to Mile 269, at the north end of Dease Lake, has been completed by contract, and from there the road is open to the Alaska Highway. To date 166 miles of construction have been completed by contract on this highway since 1957. An additional 12 miles from Stewart northerly have been completed by day labour. A total of 44 miles of the Kootenay-Columbia Highway, south of Radium, has been completed by contracts since 1962. This highway has now been completely reconstructed from Cranbrook to Golden. During the fiscal year, quantities in road construction contracts were as follows:— Solid rock cu. yd. 2,263,936! Other materials cu. yd. 7,925,5811 Clearing and grubbing ac. 1,750 Large culverts and cattle-passes (structural-steel plates) lin. ft. 823 Other culverts (all types), 10 to 72 inches in diameter Tin. ft. 48,483 Concrete for retaining-walls, drainage structures, etc. __cu. yd. 8,840 Foundation excavation, all materials cu. yd. 40,104 Riprap (loose and hand-laid) cu. yd. 97,590 Fencing rods 14,511 Gates 114 Guard-rail (reinforced concrete) lin. ft. 141,148 Gravel (base and surfacing)— Pit-run and 3-inch select tons 2,448,915 Crushed (%- to 2-inch) tons 1,451,159 Steel bin retaining-wall (frontal area) sq.ft. 2,448 1 Trans-Canada Highway quantities were 471,722 and 505,263 cubic yards respectively.

A spell of mild weather which occurred in late September and most of October gave some relief, but the quality of work performed so late in the season is below the standard that can be achieved in the summer months. During the year a total of 328.27 miles of all highways was paved with asphalt concrete, of which 12.11 miles were multi-lane highways. A total of 221.68 miles of road-mix base processing or paving was completed and 209.84 miles of surface- treatment work performed. BASE STRENGTHENING AND HOT-MIX ASPHALT-PAVING CONSTRUCTION Fourteen projects carried over from 1963 were completed during the year. Of 26 new paving contracts let from this office during the year, 14 were completed. In addition, four contracts were let as winter work for the production in stockpile of crushed granular surfacing aggregate and paving aggregate. The experimental open-graded carpet-coat completed on Marine Drive West, Vancouver, under Project S-0563 appears to be performing satisfactorily, and it is proposed to make further use of this type of surface where its use seems desirable. A 3-mile test section of plant-mixed dense-graded thin bituminous surfacing (trade-name Dix-Seal) was laid between Spuzzum and Alexandra Bridge. A short section of this same material was also laid to reduce surface slickness on the north-west approaches of the Pattullo Bridge. This hot-mixed paver-laid material may, in suitable circumstances, be considered for use as an alternative form of surfacing to the open-graded carpet-coat mentioned above, or to a standard chip seal-coat. The service performance of this dense-graded thin bituminous surfacing is now under observation. An innovation this year has been the specification and use on three contracts of an electronic screed- control device on asphalt-paving machines. Present experience is very promising, and marked improvement has been noted in the control of transverse slope of pavements laid with the device compared to pavement laid when it was made inoperative. It is proposed to gradually extend the use of electronic screed control to a majority of paving contracts. Probably the most difficult problem encountered this year was the design and construction of a suitable asphalt surface for the Port Mann Bridge deck. Because of the flexibility of the orthotropic bridge deck, it was necessary for the asphalt paving mixture to meet unusual criteria established by the bridge designers. To meet these criteria, it was necessary to carry out a very large number of mix designs with a variety of aggregates and asphalt-binders. For the final design, a special asphalt-binder had to be ordered and several aggregates blended with hydrated lime to meet grading and anti-stripping requirements. The paving mixture had to be laid with unusual care so as not to damage the protective anti-corrosive coating on the steel bridge deck and to compensate for differences in compaction resulting from differing thickness over the steel lap plates. The contractor on this project made a commendable effort to achieve a good job and introduced the first automatic joint-matcher to be used on a paver in this Province. The service performance of this pavement is being watched carefully. C 28 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 PULVIMIXING AND SURFACE TREATMENT In 1964 a further step was made in transfer of responsibility for execution of pulvimixing and minor surface treatment from the Paving Branch to regional maintenance. The equipment of one of the two former pulvimixing crews was dispersed to the regions, and only one complete Departmental pulvimix crew was used to assist Regions Nos. 1, 2, and 3 in meeting their road mixing commitments. This crew pulvimixed a total of 45.04 miles of roadway and sand-sealed 3.55 miles of highway. A second nucleus crew, provided with suitable equipment was used jointly with district forces to perform sand- and chip-sealing work in Regions Nos. 2, 3, and 4. This crew, in co-operation with district forces, applied chip seal to 36.35 miles of highway, including 0.85 mile applied on Trans-Canada Highway at Campbell Creek underpass, and sand-sealed approximately 88.75 miles of highway. In addition, 3.45 miles of gravel shoulder were treated with asphalt and chips west of Hells Gate tunnel. Two contracts were let for the production of crushed cover aggregate in stockpile in readiness for chip seal-coat work in 1965, one of which was substantially completed by the end of the fiscal year. IN-SERVICE TRAINING Short training courses were held in Regions Nos. 1,3, and 4 for laboratory technicians at the end of April and early May, and additional paving courses were also held in Prince George and Vancouver in December to increase the proficiency of selected junior engineering aides. Two engineers-in-training were employed at headquarters and on various projects from June until October in the course of their training plan. Annual proficiency examinations were held in 1965. PERSONNEL The year 1964 was notable for the loss or transfer of valuable personnel. Mr. C. E. Thorpe, Paving Engineer in Prince George, retired. Mr. T. R. Johnson, Headquarters Engineer, was transferred to the Traffic Branch. He was succeeded by Mr. P. Barnes. One Resident Engineer and three continuously employed Engineering Aides 3 resigned. In September, 1964, the Senior Paving Engineer presented a paper, "Some Notes on Asphalt Specifications," to the Public Works Association of British Columbia at its annual conference. In November, 1964, the Senior Paving Engineer and three Paving Superintendents, Messrs. E. G. Booth, J. Hynds, and H. H. Sawatzky, attended the annual general meeting and technical session of the Canadian Technical Asphalt Association, at which Mr. J. W. G. Kerr, Senior Paving Engineer, was elected first vice- president of the Canadian Technical Asphalt Association for the year 1965. The Senior Paving Engineer also attended the annual general meeting and technical conference of the Association of Asphalt Paving Technologists.

High-level photography was obtained for production of low- order mapping in Rogers Pass for avalanche control and on the Kamloops-Vernon Highway for route analysis between Monte Creek and Falkland. Uncontrolled mapping of the entire Revelstoke-Mica Dam route (91 miles) was also obtained. Preliminary intersection and interchange designs were completed on the following junctions: (1) Bentley Road in Whalley; (2) south approach to Oak Street Bridge on the Deas Tunnel Throughway; (3) River Road on Chilliwack By-pass; (4) approaches to Fraser River Bridge at Quesnel; (5) Tete Jaune Junction of the North Thompson and Northern Trans-Provincial Highways. Preliminary layouts and investigations were completed on the following projects: (1) Fraser River crossing at Quesnel; (2) Lions Gate Bridge to the Trans-Canada Highway through West Vancouver; (3) Fort Steele Restoration parking; (4) Tadanac to Trail Southern Trans-Canada Alternatives; (5) Skeena Crossing to Hazelton, Northern Trans-Provincial Highway; (6) Grindrod to Armstrong, Okanagan Highway; (7) Monte Creek to Falkland, Kamloops-Vernon Highway; (8) Simon Fraser University approach roads; (9) 16th Avenue to University of British Columbia campus. C 42 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 In addition the Planning Section completed design, plan preparation, and estimates on the following projects: (1) Langley By-pass (four lanes); (2) Simon Fraser University Access (via Curtis Street); (3) Willow River to Hungary Creek, Northern Trans-Provincial Highway; (4) Chappell Creek to Cedarside, North Thompson Highway; (5) Cedarside to District Lot 5666, North Thompson Highway; (6) Hudson Hope to Chetwynd (Section 3); (7) Willow Flats to Coyote Creek, John Hart-Peace River Highway; (8) Ruby Creek to Haig (Katz Flats), Lougheed Highway; (9) Sword Creek relocation, Chilcotin Highway. Computer Section Use of the I.B.M. 1620 computer programmes by the Victoria and regional offices rose steadily throughout the year. The Department is one of the largest users of the computer in the Government, and currently takes up 25 to 30 per cent of its total running time. During the year, 19 projects totalling 215 miles were processed on the earthwork programme; the D.T.M. Ill preliminary survey programme was used on only one project, involving some 15 miles of highway; and 23 traverses were run on Surmap 13. Additional auxiliary equipment is to be installed in September, which will again increase the flexibility of computer programmes; it is also hoped that a computer-operated cross-sections plotter will be obtained in the near future.

Readshaw, Senior Materials Engineer Introduction This year has been a very busy one, especially in the field of preliminary soils investigation for new route locations. Much of this work was done through the winter of 1963/64 on the Northern Trans-Provincial Highway between Prince George and McBride and continued on through the spring and early summer of 1964. Weather conditions were very poor, with continuous rain and mild temperatures, which made it extremely difficult to move equipment through the bush. The winter of 1964/65 was, by contrast, extremely cold, with temperatures of 30 below zero being experienced for several weeks running. Drilling operations were carried out through these periods on the Big Bend Highway between Revel- C 46 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 stoke and Mica Creek. Credit must be given to the drillers and field personnel who successfully carried out their duties under these trying and uncomfortable conditions. Bridge Foundations A total of 49 bridge-foundation investigations was carried out during the year. The distribution of sites investigated is shown below. Number of Sites Investigated Highway No. 1 (Trans-Canada Highway) 6 Highway No. 2 1 Highway No. 3 (Southern Trans-Canada Highway) 1 Highway No. 5 5 Highway No. 6 1 Highway No. 7 1 Highway No. 9 1 Highway No. 14 1 Highway No. 16 (Northern Trans-Provincial Highway) 8 Highway No. 20 1 Highway No. 23 (Mica Access) 8 Highway No. 93 2 Highway No. 95 1 Highway No. 99 5 Others 7 An intensive programme was carried out at the proposed Mission Bridge site. Here one 3-man drill rig worked seven months, a large part of the time on a barge moored in the Fraser River. Sixteen test-holes were put down to depths up to 430 feet. Soils consisted of fine sands, silts, and soft clays overlying bedrock on the south side. Another important site is the proposed crossing of the Arrow Lakes at Needles. The bridge will replace the existing ferry on Highway No. 6 after the level of the Arrow Lakes is raised on completion of the Lower Arrow Dam at Robson. The site is a difficult one, being underlain by great depths of soft silts and lacustrine clays. To date 23 test-holes on the three alternate lines have been drilled to depths up to 250 feet. A refraction seismic survey was also carried out to map bedrock profiles on the east bank. Soil Surveys It has become more and more essential of recent years to obtain fairly detailed information about the soil types, depth to bedrock, and the location of difficult construction areas on new highway locations. This year diamond drills have been used extensively for this purpose on 12 projects. This information is in addition to that obtained for the numerous bridge-sites on these routes. Projects investigated were as follows: Golden-McMurdo, Highway No. 95; West Trail-Merry's Flats, Trail; Fernie-Hosmer, Southern Trans-Canada Highway; Crowsnest-Sparwood, Southern Trans-Canada Highway; Bowron River- Hungary Creek, Northern Trans-Provincial Highway; Hungary Creek-Dome Creek, Northern Trans-Provincial Highway; Terrace-Copper River, Northern Trans-Provincial Highway; Blue River-Chappell Creek, Highway No. 5; Tete Jaune-Alberta Boundary, Northern Trans-Provincial Highway; Revelstoke-Mica Creek Access, Big Bend Highway; Yoho Bridge-Park Gate, Trans-Canada Highway; Simon Faser University Access Road, Burnaby. REPORT OF DESIGN AND PLANNING ENGINEER C 47 On nearly all of these projects, areas of peat and soft clay were encountered where fills will have to be constructed slowly to avoid slide failures. On the North Thompson Highway several such sections adjoin the Canadian National Railway, and it is particularly important to prevent failures occurring in the new fills which may affect the railway. Crossings of the Trans-mountain pipe-line also are designed on the North Thompson and Northern Trans-Provincial Highways near Tete Jaune and Redpass, requiring detailed information of the soil strengths so that protective structures can be established. The seismic technique for finding depths to bedrock was used on several occasions during the year—at Needles, the Kicking Horse Canyon, and the Upper Levels Highway. Experience with the technique is growing, and, provided the results can be checked with drill-holes, the bedrock profile can be found with 90 per cent accuracy. The cost of such surveys is much lower than for drilling, and substantially more information about the bedrock profile is obtained compared to the drill-hole technique. Landslides Two large landslides at the Kiskatinaw River and at Hells Gate Bluffs were investigated. In addition, several smaller slides were studied and remedial action undertaken. At the Kiskatinaw River Bridge on the Alaska Highway last May, the north approach fill began to slip for a distance of 500 feet, endangering the bridge. Action to remedy the slip was taken immediately by excavating the upper sliding material, providing a flatter slope and installing perforated pipe drains in areas where underground water was discovered during the excavation operations. Since last year no further movement has occurred. This slide is only one of many on the Alaska Highway between Fort St. John and Dawson Creek, and an intensive study is under way to find the best general solution. The soil in the area is clay- shale and clay-till, derived from the shale, which is unstable at very flat slopes. Serious instability was discovered during construction at a rock cut at Hells Gate, in the Fraser Canyon. A study of the forces and strains acting was started, using optical strain gauges to measure movements. A firm of consultants specializing in rock mechanics proposed to use a pattern of rock bolts to tie the slope together and to stiffen the surface skin of rock, which, under the action of residual internal stresses, was tending to flow. Forty-foot prestressed rock anchors to tie together the large loose blocks of granite were also to be installed. This work is now 701 per cent complete. Pavement Design Using the data describing rebound characteristics of pavement structures, overlay designs were prepared for 233 miles of existing highway. Four miles of newly constructed highways were checked before being paved so that soft spots and design deficiencies could be remedied at an early stage. During the spring break-up period, 160 short control-sections of highway were evaluated. Benkelman Beam readings were taken during eight periods of the year. These readings showed how the strength of the road increased and decreased with time, thus enabling spring load restrictions to be imposed at the critical period. Performance ratings and condition surveys were carried out on 3,750 miles of paved highway twice during the year. Such information provided a valuable check on the behaviour and probable future life of the highways of the Province. ■ REPORT OF DESIGN AND PLANNING ENGINEER C 49 Gravel-proving Regional crews investigated about 150 gravel prospects during the year. Much of the work was done for the proposed new construction on the Northern Trans- Provincial Highway and the North Thompson Highway. Many deposits were located by employing air photographs. Concrete Design and Inspection About 90 separate projects involving the design of concrete mixes and the subsequent control of the quality of the end product were completed. The production of precast concrete guard-rail in Vancouver, Nelson, and Cranbrook required continuous quality control checks of the concrete to ensure that specifications were fulfilled. The regional laboratories took over an increasing amount of the concrete-mix design problems. Materials Inspection Inspection of materials purchased by the Department was continued, and the volume of this work continually increases. All orders for materials such as concrete products, piles, lumber, guard-rail, paint, cement, and culvert pipe were inspected before delivery by the regional Materials Engineer in Vancouver or Prince George. Paint-testing Testing of paint to Canadian Government specifications for formulation approval was carried out for four manufacturers on 11 samples. Control testing of paint with such formulation approval was completed on 52 samples. Testing of 18 samples of traffic paint submitted by manufacturers wishing to bid for supply contracts was conducted. Control tests were done on 60 batches already in production. Glass beads for use on traffic paints were also tested. The Purchasing Commission and the Ferry Authority requested testing on 55 samples of paint to be used on Government contracts. A new paint system proposed for use on the Port Mann Bridge and several rust preventive compounds were also evaluated. Several field complaints of unsatisfactory or unusual performance of paint were investigated, and recommendations given to correct the problems. Training With so much field work going on, no formal periods of training were possible for the drilling crews. However, individual foremen were brought into the laboratory to receive instruction in soil identification and sampling procedures. Courses in concrete technology were arranged at each of the regional laboratories. The courses ran for three days, with resident engineers and concrete inspectors attending. Practical demonstrations of mix design were made, and instruction dealing with the field control aspects of concreting given. Special Problems The epoxy surfacing put on the Lions Gate Bridge in 1963 was found to be considerably worn after the severe Vancouver weather conditions this winter. The damage was caused by the high proportion of traffic using tire chains. A laboratory simulation of this type of impact wear was carried out which correlated with field experience. About 40 per cent of the vehicles using the bridge wore tire chains, representing about 200,000 vehicles during the worst two weeks of the winter when C 50 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 the wear occurred. To repair the damage, special equipment was developed to cure a new lift of epoxy resin. This work is being done successfully during the night when traffic volume is lowest. A special test was carried out to assess the effectiveness of a new salt as a wood preservative. So far it appears that posts and piles can be successfully treated, but difficulties are encountered when treating the heartwood Douglas fir used for structural lumber. Tests were also carried out on corrugated metal culvert pipe made from continuously spiral-wound plate. Strength tests have so far showed that this type of pipe is as strong as the conventional riveted plate type of corrugated metal pipe when manufactured to certain specifications. An experiment to measure the pore water pressures on sections in compacted earthfill was started last year, and it is hoped to obtain readings from the tensio- meters during this spring and summer. Gauges in the fill above large and deeply buried culverts were installed in 1963 and 1964, and readings of the pressures being experienced have been obtained. The data have confirmed that pressures over culverts can reach values as high as 150 per cent of the nominal overburden weight on the culvert. The repair of certain concrete bridge decks subject to serious spalling due to freezing and thawing conditions as well as de-icing salts commenced in the fall of 1964. A small bridge near Revelstoke was resurfaced with IVi inches of concrete after about Vi inch of the old concrete had been removed. The new surface is smooth riding, has bonded well with the old surface, and shows no signs of deterioration. As there are many such bridge decks in the Province, a programme for resurfacing them in this manner is being undertaken. TRAFFIC BRANCH J. H. Harding, Senior Traffic Engineer During the past year the Traffic Branch continued to co-operate with individuals and organizations for the purpose of research in the allied fields of traffic safety, community planning, standardization of traffic-control devices, and traffic operations. The Senior Traffic Engineer represented the Department as chairman of the Canadian Council on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, a member of the Technical and Research Committee on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, a director of the British Columbia Safety Council, and a member of both the Canadian Good Roads Association Traffic and Operations Committee and the Technical Committee of the Capital Region Planning Board. The number of short traffic counts taken in the past summer was expanded to 766 stations. Three more permanent stations were established (at Port Mann Bridge, Kinnaird, and Enderby), bringing the total throughout the Province to 17. Permanent counters record traffic volumes continuously throughout the year and may therefore be used to eliminate seasonal variations from the more numerous short summer counts taken in close proximity. A large number of special short counts were taken for various purposes, including three major transportation studies carried out by consulting firms—two for Interior cities and one for the Department. Vehicle turning movements were observed and recorded for some 60 intersections throughout the Province to determine whether flashing beacons or full " stop and go " signals were warranted for safer and more efficient traffic control. Count data show traffic volumes increased in 1964 over the same period in 1963 by approximately 12 per cent in the Northern Interior, 9 per cent in the Southern Interior, 5 per cent in the Fraser Valley, and 4 per cent on Vancouver Island. REPORT OF CHIEF RIGHT-OF-WAY AGENT C 51 Sixteen new " stop and go " traffic signals of various types and six flashing beacons were installed. Nine more grade railway crossings were equipped with automatic warning-signals. Twenty-two lane-use signal bridges were erected on the Lions Gate Bridge and Stanley Park Causeway to provide increased operating flexibility for that three-lane facility. Lighting systems containing almost 12,000 lineal feet of fluorescent tubing were installed in three more Fraser Canyon tunnels. Illumination for the Port Mann Bridge, which was designed for the Department by a consulting firm, was provided by 14,000 lineal feet of fluorescent tubing set into the bridge hand-rail. This is the largest installation of its kind in North America. The rural intersection lighting programme continued with installation of some 338 mercury vapour lumi- naires at various widespread locations. One hundred and thirty of these were used to light interchanges on the Port Mann-Mount Lehman Road section of Highway No. 401. Prior to the opening of this latest four-lane section of the Trans-Canada Highway, some 200 large freeway-type directional guide signs had to be designed and manufactured. Many intersection improvement projects were designed by the Traffic Branch and construction completed by district crews to give greater capacity, reduce congestion, and increase safety. Designs for many new Departmental construction projects were checked for operational adequacy. The more routine aspects of traffic engineering were handled throughout the year. Radar speed checks were taken at various locations, resulting in some speed- limit revisions; applications for traffic signals and crosswalks were investigated; new intersections were designed and some existing ones were revised; many requests for traffic-count information were filled; work proceeded on design of future electrical installations; and a start was made on a new Departmental sien manual. An active part was taken by the Branch in the planning of future highways and facilities. E. B. Wilkins, Design and Planning Engineer. REPORT OF THE CHIEF RIGHT-OF-WAY AGENT During the 1964/65 fiscal year, a total of 682 settlements was negotiated. Three claims were submitted to arbitration proceedings for adjudication. The expenditure for rights-of-way and for other properties acquired by the Department totalled $2,681,681.93. This included holdings purchased on behalf of the British Columbia Ferry Authority. Property acquisitions were also undertaken on behalf of the Department of Public Works and of the office of the Provincial Secretary. There were 15 sales by public tender and 20 sales by public auction during the year involving lands which were surplus to highway requirements and buildings to be cleared from rights-of-way, with a recovery of funds totalling $33,760.40. Gross revenue from rentals which included rentals prior to disposal of lands and buildings totalled $59,238.42. During the year, 131 parcels of property were under short-term lease or rental agreement. L. J. Moore, Chief Right-of-way Agent. C 52 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF EQUIPMENT EQUIPMENT During the year a net total of $5,213,669.57 was expended to cover the cost of labour, repairs, fuel, and garage overhead required to operate and maintain equipment owned by the Government and operated by the Department of Highways. The sum of $2,943,428.31 was expended on the purchase of new equipment, as follows: 44 graders, 13 crawler tractors, 14 rubber-tired loaders, 4 crawler loaders, 8 4-ton tandem flat-deck trucks, 8 5-ton diesel dump trucks, 50 4-ton dump trucks, 1 5-ton tandem tractor truck, 30 Vi-ton pick-up trucks, 18 V-i-ton panel trucks, 10 34-ton panel trucks, 6 1-ton panel trucks, 4 1-ton dump trucks, 4 four- wheel-drive pick-up trucks, 3 wrecker trucks, 10 station wagons, 10 compact station wagons, 1 motor-cycle, 7 air-compressors, 1 power unit, 1 hydraulic seeder, 3 pull-type scrapers, 4 tractor mowers, 3 portable steam generators, 1 35-ton low- bed trailer, 1 40-foot high boy trailer, 2 6-man caboose trailers, 6 tilt-deck trailers, 1 street-flusher, 2 street-sweepers, 3 screening plants, 4 sand-spreader bodies, 4 truck-mounted shovels, 4 asphalt-distributors, 2 18-ton self-propelled rollers, 2 double-drum hoists, 1 rotary snow-blower, 4 diesel generating sets, and sundry small equipment such as truck-mounted snow-ploughs, vibrating rollers, garage equipment, etc. MIXING PLANTS Two Departmental mixing plants, operating in 45 different locations, produced 46,161 cubic yards of asphalt patching material. SIGN-SHOP During the year 31,566 metal and plywood signs were produced. A net expenditure of $182,524.34 was incurred in the production of these signs. J. H. Smythe, Superintendent of Equipment. C 54 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF FERRIES Fifty-one ferries were operated under the jurisdiction of the Department of Highways during the 1964/65 fiscal year. Of these, 12 were Government-owned major ferries, 12 were Government-owned cable ferries, 15 were Government- owned reaction ferries, and 7 were privately owned subsidized ferries. There were also five Government-owned miscellaneous ferries. TRAFFIC The entire fleet carried a total of 1,990,257 vehicles and 4,993,015 passengers. This was a decrease of 18,435 vehicles and 94,550 passengers over the preceding year. The Castlegar Ferry continues to carry the largest volume of traffic moved by any ferry. This ferry carried 969,137 vehicles and 2,185,988 passengers, which amount is considerably above the preceding year. MAINTENANCE All ferries were inspected during the year, and necessary repairs carried out. Relief ferries were employed where possible to give maximum service to the public. NEW CONSTRUCTION AND ALTERATION Delta District.—The new landing on Barnston Island was completed. Comox District.—The landings at Little River and Powell River, for a new ferry service between these points, were almost completed during the year. The ferry " Comox Queen " was accepted from the builders and is the newest in the fleet. Rossland-Trail District.—The Lower Arrow Lake ferry service was discontinued.

These included claims arising out of flooding; claims for diminished water supply or water supply cut off; claims for damage to vehicles and bodily injury arising out of collision with piles of gravel or road-mix left overnight, allegedly poorly signed or entirely without warning-signs. Litigation resulted in eight claims of all types in which the Government was plaintiff and 15 cases in which a Crown agency or government employee was named as defendant. Motor-vehicles collided with 31 lamp standards, for which our repair costs were recovered. Twenty-four of these occurred in Burnaby and Delta—12 in each district. We replaced 32 windshields in private vehicles, the breakage of which occurred mainly from sanding operations or gravel coming off the box. Dozens of flasher lights and guard-rails were damaged, the repair costs of which were recovered in most cases. Sixteen meetings of the Interdepartmental Safety Committee were held, with an average attendance of seven members. Six meetings of the Department of Highways Headquarters Safety Committee were held. This Committee was responsible for the promotion of safety within the Department, and a great deal of effective work was done in this connection. J. A. LONSBURY, Insurance and Safety Officer.

C 72 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 REPORT OF THE SENIOR MAINTENANCE ENGINEER The improving standard of highway maintenance has been continued throughout the Province. This has been accomplished partly through technical advancement and partly through greater efficiency among highway crews and machines in general. Total expenditure for all maintenance of highways, bridges, and ferries amounted to $21,899,700, which was 12 per cent higher than the previous year's expenditure. A total of 20,263 miles was maintained throughout the year and kept open during the severe winter. Snowfall was much above normal, particularly in Region No. 1. Comox Airport reported 23 inches of snowfall in one seven-hour period on December 29th, and this will convey some idea of the intensity of the fall on Vancouver Island. The response from our crews was excellent, and even the most minor roads were kept open under difficult conditions. Many letters of commendation were received from the travelling public, voicing their appreciation of the service provided during this difficult period. Because of the heavy snowfall in the Lower Mainland region and Vancouver Island, the quantity of chemicals used for ice control was much above that normally used. Except for minor closures, all our main routes — Rogers Pass, Blueberry- Paulson, Salmo-Creston, and John Hart Highways — were kept open and in good condition. The use of Departmental-designed equipment on the major routes has greatly facilitated and accelerated our winter maintenance. On January 9, 1965, the Hope-Princeton Highway was blocked by a major slide 9 miles east of Hope. The road was open to traffic in 10 days after a 4-mile- long detour road was constructed. The increasing use of sterilants, weed and brush killer, combined with a more intensive brush-cutting and mowing programme, has considerably improved the appearance of our roadsides. The purchase of a larger hydro-seeder will ensure that the seeding of slopes on our newly constructed roads and highways will be greatiy expanded. Side roads in general are receiving more attention, with the more travelled routes being paved when funds permit, and many others being treated with dust- layer for the convenience of the roadside residents and the travelling public. Our radio system was expanded and proved to be invaluable during the prolonged severe winter. All bridges were maintained and reconstructed where necessary, and the programme of bridge elimination with culvert and fill was continued wherever possible. A large programme of improvements to minor roads was undertaken last year, resulting in an expenditure of almost $12,000,000. I am pleased, therefore, to report that maintenance in general is expanding and is improving in standard through greater efficiency from our employees and more suitable maintenance equipment. J. A.

Elston, Regional Highway Engineer, North Vancouver) Alberni, Burnaby, Chilliwack, Comox, Cowichan-Newcastle, Delta, Dewdney, Esquimalt, Lillooet (South), Mackenzie, Nanaimo-Islands, New Westminster, North Vancouver, Saanich, Vancouver East, and Vancouver - Point Grey Electoral Districts. Alberni District A 5-mile section of the Alberni-Tofino Road along Kennedy Lake was reconstructed. Gravel renewal was carried out on a further 6-mile section of the Alberni-Tofino Road. Burde Road was reconstructed and paved. An asphalt recap was applied to River Road to complete repairs after being damaged by the tidal wave. A truck lane was constructed and paved on the Alberni-Parksville Highway leading out of Alberni. Shoulder improvements were carried out on many of the roads in the Alberni Valley. Snow and ice conditions were severe during the winter. However, all roads were maintained in good condition without delays to traffic except for a short closure of a few days on the Alberni-Tofino Highway due to snowslide conditions. Burnaby District Roads Maintenance.—Roads were maintained in good condition throughout the district. Most of the areas around guard-rails and sign-posts were treated with soil sterilant. The new Trans-Canada Freeway was turned over to the district for maintenance in May. Prior to this, district forces carried out considerable clean-up, etc., in preparation for the opening. Construction.—A median curb was installed on Lougheed Highway from Willingdon to Gilmore Avenue. On Grandview Highway at Douglas Hill, the third lane was extended from Mayfield Street to Edmonds Street. A salt-storage shed was built in the Burnaby maintenance yard. Work continued on the access road to the new Simon Fraser University. The right-of-way clearing was completed, and some grading undertaken and storm sewers installed. Curb, gutter, and storm sewer were installed on the north side of Hastings Street from Springer to Holdom, and the first lift of pavement laid over one-half of the designed width of the road. Snow Removal.—A total of 73 inches of snowfall was recorded for the winter, which is well above normal for this area. Frequency of snow-storms and freezing conditions kept the maintenance crews working on a 24-hour basis for an extended period, ploughing, sanding, and salting. Roads were kept open at all times in generally good winter condition with a minimum of traffic delays. Considerable hired equipment was used to help combat the snow. A total of 1,573 tons of salt was used throughout the winter. Bridges Normal maintenance and repairs were carried out on all bridges in the district. REGIONAL REPORTS C 75 Chilliwack District Roads Maintenance.—All roads were very well maintained. Trans-Canada Highway No. 401 required extensive mowing. Brushing, removing stumps and dangerous trees, and ditching were required on the section between Mount Lehman and County Line Road. Each year more sterilant spraying is being carried out on shoulders and median. Calcium chloride and salt were used as a dust-layer on gravel roads. Bituminous Surfacing.—Extensive patching was carried out on Abbotsford- Mission Highway. Hot-mix pavement was laid on 0.41 mile of frontage road south of Highway No. 401, on 0.09 mile between Lickman and Yale Road, on the off-ramp from Highway No. 401 to Highway No. 9, and on 0.10-mile cross-over at McDermott Road and off-ramp from Highway No. 401. Construction.—Construction was completed on 2.00 miles of the Chilliwack Lake road, on 2.00 miles of Columbia Valley roads (Frost Creek section), on 0.41 mile of frontage road south of Highway No. 401, on 0.10 mile of service road south of Sardis Interchange, and on 0.11 mile of service road south of Clearbrook Interchange. River-bank protection work was carried out on Chilliwack River. Snow Removal.—Snowfall was much heavier than normal, but all roads were kept open and in good condition throughout the winter. Bridges All bridges were maintained in good condition. MacKay Bridge No. 1 was reconstructed, and MacKay Bridge No. 2 was replaced by a culvert and fill. Comox District Roads Maintenance.—Normal maintenance was carried out on all roads. The unusually severe winter conditions resulted in snow-removal expenditure being close to four times the expenditure for a normal year. New Construction.—On the Port McNeill-Beaver Cove Road, the remaining 2.80 miles of road at the Beaver Cove end were constructed and gravelled. The remaining 70 per cent of the Port Alice-Rumble Beach Road, being 2.5 mile, was constructed and gravelled. On Quadra Island, clearing was completed on Green Road, a distance of 1.4 miles. Grading is 30 per cent complete. At Quatsino a road was constructed to connect the Indian village with the public road, a distance of 1.93 miles. In the Courtenay area, the approach road to the new Oyster River Bridge location, being a total of 1.16 miles, is 70 per cent complete. The access road to the Comox ferry landing was constructed in preparation for paving. A total of 1.06 miles was constructed on Ellenor Road. In the Parksville area, curb and gutter was installed on a 1,000-foot section of the Island Highway arterial in Parksville, from Corfield Road north, and 0.32 mile of access road was constructed on Widgeon and 0.64 miles on Bayliss Road. Reconstruction.—On the Island Highway, a total of 15.4 miles from Mc- Naughton Creek to a point just south of Royston was widened and strengthened in preparation for repaving. C 76 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 On Denman Island 2.11 miles of East Road and Denman Road were reconstructed and paved. In the Campbell River area, Evergreen Road was constructed and paved for a distance of 0.23 mile. In the Courtenay area, Comox Lake Road was reconstructed and paved from China Town to Kin Park, a total of 1.75 miles. In the Parksville area, 2.03 miles of Hilliers Road were reconstructed and paved between the Island Highway and the Alberni Highway. On Malcolm Island, minor improvement and paving were carried out on 1.49 miles of miscellaneous roads. Paving.—A total of 13.19 miles of road-mix pavement was laid, and 10 miles of road were seal-coated. Bridges Construction.—Port Alice Bridges Nos. 1, 2, and 3 on the Port Alice-Rumble Beach Road were reconstructed. The Tsultan River Bridge on the Port McNeill-Beaver Cove Road was constructed. Reconstruction.-—-Major improvements were carried out on the Third Crossing, No. 158, which included replacing floor beams, decking, and bracing. Normal maintenance was carried out on all other bridges. Ferries Normal ferry service was maintained throughout the year between Campbell River and Quadra Island, and between Buckley Bay and Denman Island. Buildings A new two-bay equipment shed was constructed at Port Hardy. Comox (South) District A programme of providing dust-free streets was followed where the areas have become built up. This was accomplished by flush-coating roads or road-mixing according to density of traffic and population. Severe winter snow and ice conditions were handled successfully, utilizing salt for ice control. Cowichan-Newcastle District Improvements were made to the Lake Cowichan Road by eliminating sharp corners, improving sight distance, moving utility poles, and providing shouldering. Asphalt levelling courses were applied to improve the riding surface. A total of 6 miles of farm-to-market roads were paved with asphalt road mix. Major widening was carried out at the junction of the Cowichan Bay Road with the Trans-Canada Highway, and a left-turn lane provided at this point. Shoulder-widening was carried out on the Trans-Canada Highway between Ladysmith and Nanaimo. Severe winter snow and ice conditions were encountered. Bare pavement was maintained on the Trans-Canada Highway with the use of salt. Delta District Roads Maintenance.—Roads were maintained in good condition throughout the district. C 78 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 Most guard-rails and sign-posts were treated with soil sterilant, as well as the median shoulders on the full length of Deas Tunnel Throughway. The new Trans-Canada Freeway was opened on June 12, 1964, and the district, at the same time, assumed responsibility for maintenance. District forces prior to this undertook considerable clean-up work on the freeway to prepare for the opening. Construction.—On the new Trans-Canada Freeway, district forces erected Department of Commercial Transport weigh-scale buildings east of Hjorth Interchange, and installed a fill and services, as well as paving a parking area, for a patrol office south of Port Mann Bridge. A truck lane was constructed on Highway No. 10 between Johnston Road and Goldstone Road. Connecting with Beach Road on Deas Tunnel Throughway near the International Boundary, a frontage road was constructed to provide access to the Indian reserve. To relieve flooding condition on the west side of Deas Tunnel Throughway due to under-capacity culvert on Buena Vista Creek, a relief ditch to handle peak flows was constructed along the east side of the freeway from a point 1,000 feet north of North Bluff Road south to Buena Vista Creek, a total distance of 0.65 mile. A multi-plate arch culvert 160 feet long, 12 feet 4 inches by 7 feet 9 inches, was installed across the Deas Tunnel Throughway at Freshwater Creek east of the Great Northern Railway overpass. Left-turn slots and signals were installed at the intersection of Highway No. 17 and Highway No. 10 at Ladner. Resurfacing was carried out on the following roads: Glover Road, from B.C. Hydro crossing to Fort Langley, 2.9 miles; 56th Street, from Highway No. 17 to 12th Avenue, 1.4 miles; Westminster Highway, from C.N.R. crossing east for 1.8 miles. Snow Removal. — Above normal snowfall occurred, causing major snow- removal problems. Frequency of snow-storms and cold temperatures kept crews operating on a 24-hour basis, ploughing, sanding, and salting for an extended period. Roads were kept open and in generally good winter condition with minimum traffic interruption or delay. Ninety-five inches of snow was recorded for the winter. A total of 2,109 tons of salt was used to combat the ice and snow, and considerable hired equipment was used to assist our own equipment in ploughing and salting. Bridges and Ferry-landings Considerable damage to the McMillan Island ferry-landing resulted from excessive scouring of the river bed beneath the landing during the freshet in June. A contract was let for complete replacement of three approach bays, counterweight towers, guide pier, and slipway dolphins. Temporary ramps were installed immediately after the damage occurred in order to maintain ferry service with a minimum of interruption. Widening on Serpentine River Bridge on the Fraser Highway near Fry's Corner was completed. Twigg Island Bridge was closed for one month and completely redecked with 2- by 6-inch lamination overlaid with 1-inch asphalt plank running-surface. Replacement of one pier and redecking a portion of the east approach was carried out on Canoe Pass Bridge. An addition was built onto the paint-shop in Cloverdale maintenance yard. Outside of the district, the bridge crew erected a 90-foot double-single Bailey bridge at Swartz Bay. REGIONAL REPORTS C 79 All other bridges and ferry installations in the area received normal maintenance. Ferries The Albion-Fort Langley Ferry was maintained on schedule throughout the year, with the exception of some interruptions and delays during the period of high water in June when the McMillan Island landing was damaged by scouring of the river bed and when the repairs were made to the landing in the fall. Barnston Island ferry service was maintained without interruption throughout the year. The ferry-landings had to be abandoned at the foot of Hjorth Road during high water in June due to flooding of Hjorth Road. Temporary landings were installed at the foot of Latimer Road, up-river on the mainland, and in the Indian reserve on Barnston Island. These temporary landings remained in service for one month; however, ferry service was maintained with few delays. Dewdney (East) District Roads Maintenance.—All roads were well maintained. Extensive mowing was done, and considerable sterilant and brush-kill spraying was carried out. Bunker B oil and calcium chloride were used on gravel roads as a dust-layer. Due to the very long period of higher than average run-off in June and July, a great deal of dyking work was necessary. A considerable amount of shoulder gravel was laid on the Lougheed Highway. Bituminous Surfacing.—Extensive patching was done on the Lougheed Highway and the Harrison Hot Springs Highway. New asphalt pavement was laid on 0.68 mile of Hyde Buker Road, on 0.85 mile of Nicomen Trunk Road, and on 0.10 mile of Floods Road. Existing pavement was recapped on 0.58 mile of McKamie Road, on 3.30 miles of Nicomen Trunk Road, on 0.30 mile of Sylvester Road, and on 300 feet of Silver Creek Road at the intersection with the Trans-Canada Highway. Construction.—Construction was completed on 2.60 miles of the Agassiz-Haig section of the Lougheed Highway, on 0.04 mile of Burns Road, and on 0.1 mile of Hartley Road.

A gravel levelling course and asphalt surfacing were carried out on a 1.2-mile section of Lougheed Highway between Brunette Street and Cape Horn. On Trans-Canada Highway No. 401, a 0.26-mile extension was built on the east-bound off-ramp at Brunette Interchange. One thousand seven hundred feet of chain link fencing was installed on the Trans-Canada Highway at Cape Horn. Salt-storage sheds were constructed on Lougheed Highway at Cape Horn and in the maintenance yard in Coquitlam. Snow Removal.—Higher than usual snowfalls were experienced throughout the winter, the total recorded depth being 99 inches. Crews were kept working on a 24-hour basis for an extended period combating the frequent snowfalls and freezing conditions with snowploughs, sand, and salt. Some hired equipment was used for ploughing. Approximately 754 tons of salt were used in an effort to keep the pavements free of ice and snow. The roads were kept in generally good winter condition with negligible delay to traffic. Bridges and Ferry-landings Pallot Bridge on the Lougheed Highway east of Pitt River was widened from 24 to 44 feet. Complete redecking was carried out on Neaves Road Bridge in Pitt Polder. Riprapping to check bank erosion was carried out adjacent to Albion ferry-landing. Normal maintenance and repairs were carried out on all other bridges in the district. Esquimalt District Roads Maintenance.—Roads were maintained in generally good condition throughout the year. A considerable mileage of roads was widened and gravelled. A crushed-gravel surface was placed on 14 miles of the West Coast Road and on 2.7 miles of Parkinson Road. A great deal of oiling was done to alleviate dust conditions.

Nanaimo-Islands District A programme of road-mix paving was carried out at various points in the district, the total length being 11 miles. Flush-coat asphalt was laid to control the dust situation in built-up areas. Ditches were moved back and shoulders provided on numerous paved side roads. The construction of many rural schools necessitated the provision of shoulders as walkways. Severe winter snow and ice conditions were dealt with successfully. New Westminster District Roads Maintenance.—City of New Westminster took over District Lot 172 on November 26, 1964. regional reports c 83 North Vancouver District Roads Maintenance.—Adequate maintenance was carried out on all roads. Snow Removal.—Despite the severe winter, main roads and most side roads were kept open at all times. Little difficulty was experienced by the travelling public. Saanich District Roads Maintenance. — Roads were maintained in good condition during the year. Several side roads were improved, and a considerable mileage of roads oiled. Construction.—The West Saanich Road was reconstructed from Keating Cross Road to Stellys Cross Road, a distance of 1.2 miles, prior to paving by contract. James Island Road was relocated, constructed, and paved. On Lochside Drive an 0.5-mile section was completed and paved, giving a good approach to the Village of Sidney and the Washington State Ferry. Snow Removal.—A greater than normal amount of snowfall and ice conditions prevailed during December and January. Crews were able to cope with conditions, with no particular inconvenience to the public. Ferries Normal maintenance was performed on the ferry-landings. Vancouver-Point Grey District Roads Maintenance.—Roads were maintained in good condition throughout the year. Snow Removal.—Despite the severe winter, main roads and most side roads were kept open at all times. Little difficulty was experienced by the travelling public. Bridge and Patrol Superintendent The year's work consisted of the usual general maintenance of the toll-free bridge structures and interconnecting highways, and also of repairs and maintenance for the British Columbia Ferry Authority. Tolls were removed from the Oak Street Bridge and the Deas Tunnel on April 1, 1964, these being the last of the toll structures on the Lower Mainland. General maintenance of the Pattullo Bridge and the Port Mann Bridge was placed under the direction of the Bridge and Patrol Superintendent. Maintenance of the Stanley Park Causeway also was placed under the same direction; it was previously the responsibility of the Vancouver Parks Board. A further duty taken over was the patrolling of Trans-Canada Highway No. 401 from North Vancouver to the Agassiz Road junction near Rosedale. Painting was carried out on two of the main structures—namely, First Narrows Bridge and Pattullo Bridge. Heavy snowfall was general, but roads were kept in good condition. A few minor delays were caused on the Port Mann Bridge and the Trans-Canada Highway by motorists not being familiar with winter driving conditions. C 84 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 REGION No. 2 (J. W. Nelson, Regional Highway Engineer, Kamloops) Cariboo (South), Kamloops, Lillooet (North), North Okanagan, Revelstoke, Salmon Arm, Similkameen, South Okanagan, and Yale Electoral Districts Cariboo (South) District Roads Maintenance.—A continuous patching programme was again carried out on the Cariboo Highway. Weed-burning and general maintenance of the right-of-way were to an improved standard. General maintenance on some 1,500 miles of road was hindered by a wet summer. Maintenance of existing signs received much attention. Many new signs were erected for subdivision and side roads. Construction.—On the Cariboo Highway, widening was completed from Mile 97 to Mile 102.5 in preparation for repaving. This included construction of truck lanes for the north and south approaches to 100 Mile House and on 83 Mile Hill. Clearing for future widening was virtually completed from Mile 124 to Mile 142. The Chilcotin Highway was reconstructed for 8 miles from the top of Sword Creek Hill to Riske Creek. Five and one-half miles of the Canim Lake Road were reconstructed, completing the section from Forest Grove to the Cariboo Highway. Six and one-half miles of the Chimney Lake Road were reconstructed, as were also 12.2 miles of sundry roads. Major improvements were made on a further 68.7 miles of road. Paving.—A paving school was held in the 100 Mile area. Road-mix pavement was laid on 3.8 miles of the Canim Lake Road and 0.2 mile of Eagle Creek Road. Snow Removal.—Snowfall was unusually heavy throughout most of the district, with continuous freezing conditions during the entire winter period. The Horsefly and Likely areas were particularly hard hit. Excessive depths of snow made it difficult to maintain normal road widths. Bridges A new timber bridge, Tatla Lake Creek (No. 604), was constructed on the Chilcotin Highway. Minor timber structures including Newton (No. 182), Sword Creek No. 2 (No. 375), Siwash (No. 381), Red Creek (No. 418), Corkscrew (No. 494), Clinchintampan (No. 499), and Lingfield (No. 500) were all renewed. In addition, six bridges had major repairs. Minor maintenance and debris removal were carried out on numerous sundry bridges. Kamloops District Roads Trunk and Main Highways.—General maintenance was carried out on all trunk and main highways. As in the last two years, it was found that traffic volumes increased considerably on all of these highways, and our maintenance has consequently increased to keep pace. Patching, sign maintenance, shoulder restoration, and weed control were again given top priority. Maintenance costs were kept, as in the past three vears, on specified sections of the Trans-Canada Highway for evaluation by the Design and Planning Engineer. We had a fairly long and hard winter, with near-record snowfalls, which necessitated continuous ploughing, sanding, and chemical applications. It was again REGIONAL REPORTS C 85 found that with the proper use of abrasives and a mixture of abrasives and chemicals it was possible to bring about bare pavement in a relatively short time after a freeze or snowfall. There were again no load restrictions on the Trans-Canada Highway; however, overloads were rescinded for a short period of time. Other Highways and Roads.—Routine maintenance was carried out on all other roads. We continued our programme to place a coat of gravel on our busier side roads and in particular where they pass by homes or ranches, to ease the dust problem in the hot weather and muddy sections during rainy periods. Snowfalls were near record; however, all school-bus routes were kept open. Spring break-up was fairly severe. There was excellent co-operation from the loggers in keeping road damage to a bare minimum. Bridges All bridges in the district were inspected by the Kamloops Resident Engineer, Senior Engineering Aide, and Bridge Foreman to determine the next year's bridge repair and replacement programme. The following bridges were redecked, complete with cross-ties and stringers, checked, and replaced as required: Snowball Creek (No. 193), Allen Creek (No. 223), Cayuse Creek (No. 44), Lemieux Creek No. 2 (No. 130), Tranquille No. 1 (No. 199), Fadeau Creek (No. 92), and Barriere South (No. 17). Kamloops East Bridge (No. 121) and Clearwater River Bridge (No. 55) were completely redecked, new cross-ties were placed, and sidewalks were added for pedestrian safety. Clearwater Station Bridge (No. 56) was repaired extensively, with 54 new piles driven to strengthen the piers. Vavenby Bridge (No. 204) also had new piles driven for strengthening, and a sidewalk was added. Barriere East Bridge (No. 15) was reconstructed in co-operation with the Department of Lands, Forests, and Water Resources with an 80-foot glue-lam structure. Landscaping was continued and repaired on Overlander Bridge (No. 208). Four bridges were eliminated by reconstruction of the North Thompson Highway. Lemieux Creek Bridge No. 1 (No. 129) was replaced by a concrete and steel structure. Blackwater River Bridge (No. 24), Peterson Creek Bridge (No. 163), and Jones Creek Bridge (No. 120) were replaced by multi-plate culverts. Ferries All ferries were checked, painted, and repaired as required. All lines and sheaves were lubricated and repaired. There were short interruptions during high water and icing conditions. Day-labour Construction North Thompson Highway.—A total of 3.3 miles was reconstructed to standard. This work completed our day-labour programme to Vavenby. This section was gravelled and pulvimixed as well. Five miles were improved from Avola to Blue River, to provide four turnouts because of heavier traffic volumes. Other Day-labour Projects.—Two and one-half miles were reconstructed on the Heffley-Louis Creek Road or access to Mount Tod ski-ing area; 6.11 miles were reconstructed to provide access for major logging operations on Barriere North Road (No. Ill); and 2.1 miles were reconstructed on the Clearwater Valley Road. Approximately another 25 miles were improved and reconstructed on a number of other busy roads. Sundry Roads.—Slashing, widening, ditching, and spot gravelling were carried out on approximately 5 miles of road. C 86 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 Bunker B oil was supplied to all gravel roads in Valleyview, Dallas, Brockle- hurst, Westsyde, Powers Addition, Little Fort, and Clearwater. Road mixing was completed on 5 miles of other subdivision roads. Lillooet (North) District Roads Maintenance.—General maintenance was carried out on all roads in the district. Extra work resulted from damage caused by a 24-hour rainfall in June, which temporarily closed six of the main district roads. This storm created a large slide covering Highway No. 40 just below Mission Dam and washed out the Churn Creek Bridge in the Gang Ranch country and the Gibbs Creek Underpass on Highway No. 12b, the latter high water also taking out some 500 feet of P.G.E. Railway track. Weed-burning along the Trans-Canada Highway right-of-way was carried out by a specially equipped truck. Large amounts of slide rock were removed from Highways Nos. 40, 12b, and 12a. Alexandra North Arch, Trans-Canada Highway, 1 mile north of Alexandra Lodge. 140-foot reinforced concrete barrel arch, 44-foot roadway. Construction and Surfacing.—Nineteen miles of new roads were constructed, 12 miles of these being in conjunction with the Department of Lands, Forests, and Water Resources. Six miles of new road in the Upper Hat Creek area were built to eliminate six small bridges. Reconstruction.—Four miles of road were reconstructed on Highway No. 12b, 1,500 feet of one-way road along Pavilion Lake being widened, this entailing considerable rock work. Seven and one-half miles of the Cariboo Highway, from Cache Creek north, were widened to 50 feet. Widening was also done on both approaches to Ashcroft. Elsewhere some 25 miles were realigned and regravelled. m REGIONAL REPORTS C 87 Snow Removal.—Lillooet again had higher than average snow conditions, with the bulk of the snowfall occurring at lower levels. Bridges The Churn Creek Bridge had to be replaced due to the heavy June rain, as well as one in the Upper Hat Creek area, with other bridges needing reinforcing. The Red Bridge at Pemberton was redecked, this bridge being some 385 feet in length. The P.G.E. Railway underpass at Gibbs Creek on Highway No. 12b, being washed out, had a new design advanced for it. Elsewhere two old structures were dismantled, having being replaced by new bridges the year before. Ferries The Big Bar reaction ferry continued in operation, its main cargo being some 9,000 head of sheep, with the occasional hunter and local ranchers using it. North Okanagan District Roads Maintenance.—We have continued with our efforts to maintain a high standard of maintenance, and the results are beginning to be quite evident. The brushing and clearing programme is being maintained. A hazardous condition existed at Weir's Bluff on Highway No. 97a 6 miles north of Enderby, and this was eliminated with the removal of approximately 6,000 yards of rock. On four major railway crossings the timber planking was replaced by steel flange grooves and asphalt- concrete pavement. Construction and Surfacing.—A contract was awarded for strengthening and recapping of the Vernon-Lumby section of Highway No. 6. Reshouldering and ditching of the section was done by district forces. We improved 25.30 miles of road, and of this total 15.85 miles were paved with pulvimix and 2.10 miles with road mix by district forces. Snow Removal.—Snowfall was slightly higher than the 10-year average. We were able to maintain a good standard of maintenance and service. The Monashee Pass section of Highway No. 6 was handled much easier with truck ploughs equipped with one-way ploughs, and no bulldozers were required. Bridges Two old bridges on Whiteman Creek were replaced by one new stringer span 40 feet in length, with concrete piers, laminated deck, and asphalt surface. New deck systems and surfaces were installed on four major bridges. Minor repairs were made to decks and railings on six bridges. Revelstoke District Roads Maintenance. — Maintenance crews concentrated on ditching and gravelling various side roads and frontage roads. Portions of the Big Bend Highway required major gravelling. The Revelstoke-Arrowhead Road was washed out by a flash flood at McKay Creek. Calcium chloride was used on the Revelstoke-Arrowhead Road, Big Eddy suburbs, and various side roads for dust control. Trans-Canada Highway.—All snow-removal maintenance was worked out in a three 8-hour shift system, with minor closures resulting from slope slides and snow- slides, except for minor slides at Summit Lake, Three Valley, and Silver Creek. No exceptional maintenance was required. The Highways Department maintained all C 88 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 snow removal through Revelstoke National Park, and the Parks maintained from Albert Canyon east. Construction. — Work was continued on the reconstruction of the Solsqua- Sicamous Road. Relocation was completed on a portion of the Nichol Road, and construction started in late fall. Communications A new type of antenna was installed on the repeater at Sproat Mountain to solve the icing problem. The communication with the Galena Pass area is good, but there is some interference from the New Denver area. Bridges Due to flash floods in July, 1964, Silvertip, Downie Creek, and Greeley Creek Bridges were washed out and destroyed. These were replaced by new structures of various types. _ ' Femes On the opening of the road from Galena Bay to Nakusp, the ferry service from Arrowhead to Nakusp was discontinued. The M.V. " Lardeau," which was on this service, now operates between Arrowhead and Galena Bay. No major trouble was experienced from ice conditions at either 12 Mile or 24 Mile ferries. Salmon Arm District Roads Maintenance.—A general maintenance programme was carried out on all highways and side roads within the district. Weed control was continued along the Trans-Canada Highway with the use of chemicals. A small amount of calcium- chloride was used as a dust preventative in isolated areas, and more oil was used than in previous years to control dust on heavily travelled side roads. Reconstruction.—Shuswap-Chase Creek Road (No. 202), Mile 0.0 to Mile 1.4, was reconstructed to a 33-foot subgrade, and 6 inches of pit-run gravel were applied. Holding Road (No. 451), Mile 5.0 to Mile 7.0 was reconstructed to a 33- foot subgrade, and 6 inches of pit-run gravel were applied. Balmoral Road (No. 66), Mile 0.0 to Mile 1.9, was reconstructed to a 33-foot subgrade, and 6 inches of pit-run and 6 inches of crushed gravel were applied. V.L.A. Road (No. 204), Mile 0.4 to Mile 1.4, was reconstructed to a 33-foot subgrade, and 6 inches of pit-run gravel were applied. Major improvements were carried out on Chase streets, Squilax—Turtle Valley Road, Douglas Lake Road, Sorrento-Eagle Bay Road, and Kamloops-Vernon Highway. The above totalled 5.5 miles and included rock work, widening, ditching, shouldering, and general improvements. Snow Removal.—The snowfall was greater than had been experienced for several winters. All trunk and side roads were kept open. Again crews were used on shift work, and with the use of chemicals our trunk roads were kept in very good condition. D .,, Bridges Frost Bridge and Ross Creek Bridge were completely renewed. Pritchard Bridge was kept in usable condition by means of a Bailey Bridge span. Whitaker Bridge was replaced by culvert and fill. Squilax Bridge was redecked, and sundry repair work was carried out on 37 other bridges. Ferries Shuswap Lake ferry service operated as usual. C 90 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 Similkameen District Roads Maintenance.—Routine maintenance throughout the district emphasized improving the appearance of road rights-of-way by shouldering and weed and brush spraying. The programme of placing curve delineators was continued. A total of 32.5 miles of orchard roads was oil-sprayed for dust control. Paving.—There were 7.8 miles of road paved and 2.9 miles recapped by road mixing. Eight miles of old pavement were rehabilitated by sand-sealing. Construction and Reconstruction.—The westerly 24.1-mile section of the Richter Pass Highway was widened and prepared for paving by district forces. Two truck escape routes and a 1.2-mile truck lane were constructed on the Hope-Princeton Highway. Work was continued in widening and improving the access road to the Apex Ski Hill. Snow Removal.—Although snowfall was normal in the Allison Pass area, heavier than normal snowfalls occurred in the eastern portion of the district. Above average tonnages of salt and sand were necessary to combat icy roads. Bridges Four bridges were completely reconstructed. Maintenance of other bridges in the district called for redecking where necessary and foundation repairs. South Okanagan District Roads Maintenance.—The increase of tourist traffic as well as the rapid growth of the unorganized areas is requiring increased maintenance to minor roads. This maintenance entails ditching, culverts, brushing, and gravelling. General maintenance is being increased each year, with emphasis on grading, ditching, brushing, signing, and dust control. Maintenance on Highway No. 97 included widening of the shoulders and view points and general improvement of the aesthetic features for tourist enjoyment. The late run-off, coupled with heavy rains in late May, resulted in above average flood conditions commencing June 7th. No flood damage resulted as it was possible to contain the waters by the construction of rock dykes. Reconstruction.—Improvements were carried out on 2 miles of the Westside Road from the old ferry-landing north, preparatory to paving. Improvements to grade and alignment were carried out on several roads, the total length of which amounted to 4.5 miles. Gravelling was done on 12.68 miles of district roads. Construction was 90 per cent completed on a five-lane system, Kelowna east for 3 miles on Highway No. 97. Reconstruction was carried out on 10.98 miles of side roads. Paving.—A total of 2.8 miles of road-mix pavement was laid by district forces. Snow Removal.—An above average snowfall was recorded, requiring a 24- hour coverage by the snow-removal equipment. No inconvenience was experienced by the travelling public. Increased use was made of salt, which proved very satisfactory. REGIONAL REPORTS C 91 Bridges Sawmill Creek Bridge was replaced by a steel-stringer span and concrete abutments. Normal maintenance and repairs were carried out on all bridges. Yale District Roads Maintenance.—General maintenance was carried out on all roads in the district. Weed and brush killers were applied on the Trans-Canada Highway. On January 1, 1965, a wet 36-inch snowfall caused numerous major snowslides between Yale and Boston Bar, closing the Fraser Canyon section of the Trans- Canada Highway from 4 p.m. on January 1st until 9 a.m. on January 3rd. On January 9th at approximately 6 a.m. a massive rock, dirt, and snow slide, approximately 1.5 miles in width at its base, occurred at Mile 14 on the Southern Trans-Canada Highway. This completely blocked the road and valley. Department forces and some 50 pieces of various types of hired equipment, working two 12-hour shifts, completed a detour road through the slide and reopened the road to traffic at 7 a.m. on January 22, 1965. Unfortunately four persons were caught in the slide and lost their lives. Permanent lighting was installed in the Yale, Alexandra, and Ferrabee Tunnels on the Trans-Canada Highway. Major Construction and Reconstruction. — A 0.25-mile rock section of the Othello Road, near Hope, was drilled and blasted to eliminate a narrow section. On the Merritt-Spences Bridge Highway, rock corners were improved between Mile 12.15 and Mile 13.0. Rock from these excavations was used for riprap at various sections from Mile 5 to Mile 16. In addition, a dangerous gravel corner at Mile 14.5 was widened and improved. Side roads in the Merritt area were improved as follows: Mamit Lake—new grade and alignment and gravelling between Mile 5.40 and Mile 6.85; Coldwater— 3 miles of brushing, gravelling, and additional culvert installation carried out; Loon Lake—several rock corners drilled and blasted and gravelling completed over a 2-mile section; Penask Lake—gravelling and culvert installation, Mile 22.5 to Mile 28.5. A total of 2 miles of gravelling was done on the Douglas Lake and Mathew Roads. On the Coalmont road, a rock corner was eliminated at Mile 31.6 and 15 miles of gravelling carried out on various dirt sections. At Silver Creek, the Silver Hope Access Road, 0.18 mile in length, was constructed and gravelled. Bituminous Surfacing.—The Merritt-Kamloops Arterial in the Village of Merritt between Mile 0.0 and Mile 1.4 was strengthened with 6-inch gravel lift and repaved. Hot-mix asphalt pavement was laid on 0.10 mile of the Silver Hope Access Road. Bridges All district bridges were maintained, and extensive repairs were effected to 10 bridges. Fuick Bridge No. 141 was eliminated by installation of a 72-inch diameter culvert and fill. C 92 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 Ferries During a period of high water on the morning of August 4th, the overhead cable of the Lytton Ferry failed, and this reaction ferry went aground approximately 1,000 feet downstream. District forces installed a new main cable and restored the ferry to service at 5 p.m. on August 14th. Emergency service was maintained during this period by means of a rented power-boat. A new haul-back cable was installed and certain modifications were carried out to the ferry cage of the North Bend Aerial Ferry. REGION No. 3 (D. F. Martin, Regional Highway Engineer, Nelson) Columbia, Cranbrook, Fernie, Grand Forks-Greenwood, Kaslo-Slocan, Nelson-Creston, and Rossland-Trail Electoral Districts Columbia District Roads Maintenance.—Maintenance on the Trans-Canada Highway and on the Kootenay-Columbia Highway consisted of patching, ditching, cleaning culverts, grading shoulders, weed control, renovating signs, clearing rock, and picking up garbage. The weed-control programme consisted of the application of chemicals in the fall. This was 75 per cent effective. Fall and spring bring problems of rockslides, especially in the Golden area. Litter is deposited along our highways, which entails considerable clean-up. More garbage barrels will be put out during the 1965/66 season to try to remedy this situation. Construction. — Day-labour construction was done on the Westside, Toby, Campbell, Golden-Donald, Madsen, and J-2 Ranch Roads, and streets in Canal Flats, Windermere, Radium, and Edgewater. On the roads, work constituted slashing, widening, gravelling, and placing culverts. The street programme consisted of gravelling, road mixing, and oiling. On the Big Bend Highway, work was done in conjunction with the logging companies. This consisted of a certain amount of grading and culvert installation. Snow removal was on a 24-hour basis. Snowslides in the Kicking Horse Canyon and Toby Creek area constituted the usual problems. Sodium chloride and calcium chloride were used to advantage under favourable temperature conditions. Bridges Bridge work involved the reconstruction of Brisco Bridge and Jumbo Bridge. Major construction of Sullivan Bridge was completed. Copper Creek Bridge was replaced by culverts and fill. Repairs on other bridges were carried out as required. Buildings Normal maintenance took place on Department of Highways buildings as required. Cranbrook District Roads Maintenance.—General maintenance was carried out on all district roads. Pavement-patching was above normal on older surfaces. Soil sterilant was applied to shoulders where new construction or shouldering took place. Weed-spraying and brush-cutting was carried out on all main highways. Calcium chloride was used REGIONAL REPORTS C 93 on gravel roads where population is sufficient to warrant same as a dust-layer. Frost heaving on roads was more than usual. Construction.—Highway No. 93 from Eager Hill to Fort Steele was completed to subgrade. Pit-run gravel was placed on 4 miles, and 1 Va -inch gravel was placed on 1 mile. Concrete guard-rail was manufactured for this road. Gravelling, road-mix paving, and the manufacture of concrete guard-rail was completed on the Wycliffe Bridge approach, Kootenay-Columbia Highway No. 95. After widening and gravelling, road-mix pavement was laid on 2 miles of Mission Road and 1.0 mile of Black Bear Road. A total of 0.75 mile of Kimberley East subdivision roads and 1.20 miles of Monroe Lake Road were widened, gravelled, and double flush-coated. The C.P.R. Hill section of the Southern Trans-Canada Highway was widened where truck lanes are located; also shoulders were widened on adjacent sections to C.P.R. Hill for total of 5.2 miles. Snow Removal.—Above average snowfall was encountered this past winter, but roads were maintained and open with very little delay. The use of chemicals at the right time and extreme cold weather after a storm enabled crews to keep most sections of main highways to bare pavement, which made travel easier. Costs were considerably above normal years. Bridges All bridges were maintained as required. Nigger Creek Bridge, a new structure, 40 feet long, was built to replace culverts put in due to road washing out each year since original bridge was removed. Buildings Work in the Cranbrook yard consisted principally of erection of metal building additions, repairs and some painting to a storage shed, painting the balance of the interior of the shop with fire-retarding paint. A building was moved from Wardner to Abbey gravel pit for storage of loader and chemicals during winter. Fernie District Roads Maintenance.—Pavement, shoulder, and gravel maintenance was carried out on all district roads throughout the year. Some sections of the main highway were treated with weed and brush killer to aid in improving sight distance and in highway aesthetics. A portion of the Southern Trans-Canada and most of the Elko-Roos- ville sections were shoulder-treated with soil sterilant to reduce weed and grass growth on the shoulders. An extensive programme of clearing and gravelling side roads was undertaken, and considerable improvement has been noticed this year. A particularly hazardous section of the Southern Trans-Canada in the winter months was improved by brushing the tree line well back of the road section. Some earthwork was done on various side roads to improve alignment and grade. Particular attention was given to side roads leading to two summer-resort areas, Rosen and Tie Lake. Dust inhibition near dwellings was accomplished with the use of liquid asphalt. River-bank protection work on various sections of the main highway was necessary to combat high water and bank erosion. Snow Removal.—An abnormally high December snowfall resulted in an above normal total for the year. A lack of rain throughout the winter produced an extensive amount of snow in the mountains; however, only one major slide occurred, <- C 94 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 at Morrissey. A shift system was incorporated to enable our crews to provide around-the-clock service when necessary. Construction.—On the Southern Trans-Canada Highway near Hosmer, 3.7 miles was raised with pit-run gravel, finished with crushed gravel, and pulvimixed. Bridges Bull River Wagon Bridge was reinforced and redecked. Sand Creek Bridge was completely rebuilt, using creosoted piling and fir stringers. Buildings A new concrete floor was poured in the Fernie garage, and an assembly-room for the Fernie crew was completed. Grand Forks-Greenwood District Roads Maintenance.—General maintenance was carried out on all district roads. Slope seeding was carried out on the Christina-Kinnaird section of the Southern Trans-Canada Highway. The shoulder-widening programme was continued on the Anarchist Mountain section of the same highway. Major improvements in grade, alignment, and width were carried out on the Rock Creek-Kelowna road, between Rock Creek and Westbridge. Soil sterilant was applied to all guard-rail sections on the Southern Trans-Canada Highway and on the shoulders between Grand Forks and Christina Lake. Construction.—Reconstruction of the final 1.76 miles of the Grand Forks- Greenwood section of the Southern Trans-Canada Highway was completed to tie in to the new Greenwood Underpass section. Reconstruction of two sections totalling 7.03 miles of the Rock Creek- Kelowna road was started late in the fall. By the end of the year some 3.01 miles of subgrade were completed, with 1.52 miles 60 to 80 per cent completed and an additional 2.5 miles cleared. Widening was started on the Alpine Inn-Texas Point road, but was halted by heavy snowfall. The Kettle Valley South road was widened, ditched, and gravelled for 3.12 miles. The Kettle Valley East road was widened, gravelled, and paved with penetration seal pavement for 1.63 miles. A total of 4.98 miles of new penetration seal- paving and 8.63 miles of bituminous seal-coating was carried out on local roads in the Grand Forks, Christina Lake, Greenwood, Midway, and Rock Creek areas. Snow Removal.—Snowfall throughout the district, particularly at the lower levels, was considerably heavier than the average over the past 10 years. All roads were kent open and well sanded. Use of chemicals was increased, with good results. Heavier snowfall resulted in an increase in the number of slides on the Christina-Kinnaird section of the Southern Trans-Canada Highway causing some minor traffic delays. Winter maintenance was discontinued on part of the old Cascade Highway between Christina Lake and Rossland, and the road was closed for the winter between Mile 7 on the Christina Lake end to Sheep Creek on the Rossland end. Bridges Kallis Creek Bridges Nos. 1 and 2 were widened and raised to prevent flooding at high water. C 96 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 Major repairs were carried out on Schulli, Cascade Upper, Beaverdell, and Cooper Bridges. Less extensive repairs, including washing and painting, were carried out on some 30 other bridges. Greenwood and C.P.R. Depot Bridges were given major repairs prior to turning them over to the City of Greenwood. Buildings A new two-bay equipment shed with attached assembly-room and storeroom was constructed at Beaverdell. A well and pumping system was installed at Rock Creek to provide water for washroom facilities and fire protection at the Rock Creek equipment shed. Kaslo-Slocan District Roads The Columbia River development increased the activity in this district, and road construction by day labour was accordingly accelerated. With funds from British Columbia Hydro and Power Authority, the 8.4 miles from Lardeau to Marblehead was rebuilt to a 30-foot top with a heavy lift of gravel for extraordinary traffic conditions. Work was pressed on the widening of Coffee Creek bluffs, and at the year-end was 85 per cent complete. A diversion around the bottleneck at Western Mines mill-site was 75 per cent completed. Widening on Silverton Hill, Highway No. 6, was completed, and the surface was road-mixed under bad weather conditions. The rainy summer made all road mixing difficult, but 2Vi miles between Arrow Park and Nakusp and 4 miles along Summit Lake were fairly successfully surfaced after widening was complete. A sand seal from Slocan to Nakusp on all existing road-mix pavement was done by the Paving Branch and district forces. In December, 25 miles of a private logging-road were gazetted as a public road, and this was an added snow-service problem. Maintenance of all roads was improved, and a mowing and brush-control spray programme continued. Bridges Howser Bridge, on the Lardeau-Gerrard Road, collapsed under a logging-truck and caused a major disturbance in the traffic pattern in the area. The only available detour suffered from high water flooding. The new 180-foot structure, a two-span glulam on creosoted piling, was completed in early December. Poplar Bridge in the same area was rebuilt with sirnilar materials by late March, and extensive repairs made to Gold Hill Bridge. Falsework for a new bridge to cut off 9 miles of the Nakusp-Galena Bay route was constructed. The bridge crew had an extremely busy year and were supplemented at times by the Golden District crew and vehicles and assisted by the Nelson District crew. Buildings The oil sheds at Winlaw, Kaslo, Edgewood, and New Denver were completed, and an addition to the New Denver garage to house a new stockroom, tire-repair room, washroom, and furnace-room was put into use. Ferries Ferries were maintained in service with few major breakdowns. A tug, which we had hoped would help replace these barges for complete hull painting, was required on Kootenay Lake to facilitate construction at Lardeau. REGIONAL REPORTS C 97 New gravel approaches were built at Needles West and Arrow Park West, and the cable anchors renewed. Safety The district crews tried hard to improve their safety record, and did succeed in keeping vehicle accidents to a minimum. Unfortunately the heavy slashing programme on construction involved a large turnover of untrained personnel, and we had several minor accidents. The record is still bad, but the crews are becoming more safety-conscious. Nelson-Creston District Roads Maintenance.—Improvements were carried out to numerous roads, including Pass Creek, Lower Six Mile, Tooze, Walker's Landing, and Silver King Roads. Shouldering work was carried out on the Nelson-Castlegar and Nelson-Balfour sections of Highway No. 3A and on Highway No. 21 between Creston and Porthill. Increased use was made of soil sterilants on highway shoulders, with good results. Minor flooding occurred on the Rilkoff Road and Slocan Valley West Road during the spring run-off. Extensive bank slips had to be removed from the Salmo-Creston Highway for 12 miles east of the summit. Construction.—Work was carried out on the Cora Linn-Bonnington section of Highway No. 3a. A further 2 miles of Highway No. 3 between Hazel Creek and Kidd Creek were reconstructed. Additional reconstruction work was carried out on the Creston-Summit Creek Road. Roads were constructed in the Land Settlement Board subdivisions at Ootischenia, Shoreacres, Brilliant, and Raspberry. Snow Removal.—Very heavy snowfall occurred throughout the district. This resulted in sharply increased snowploughing activity, but some reduction in the amount of sanding. The temporary winter maintenance camp on the Salmo-Creston Highway was moved to Kootenay Pass. This proved to be a more satisfactory base for the winter maintenance operation. It was necessary on several occasions to provide shelter for members of the public who were unable to travel because of snow- slides on both sides of the summit. Snowslide activity was extreme during the first half of the winter. Road closures were numerous, the longest being for a two-day period in December. Bridges The Salmo River Bridge north of Ymir on Highway No. 6 was reconstructed. The Laird Creek Bridge was replaced by a culvert and fill. Major repairs were carried out to the Slocan River Bridge at Crescent Valley. General maintenance and inspection were carried out on all bridges in the district. Ferries Traffic volume on the Kootenay Lake ferries was reduced during the first half of the year, but increased during the second half. Two ferries operated on an hourly schedule during the summer months. The Kootenay Bay ferry-landing was reconstructed. Extensive repairs were carried out to the Balfour landing. The Glade ferry was shut down during the high water. Rossland-Trail District Roads Maintenance. — Easy spring run-off reduced usual spring washout repairs. Summer maintenance included preparation of new construction slopes for hydro- seeder programme. Shoulder-widening and roadside improvements were increased C 98 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 over other yearly programmes. Pavement-patching and sign renewal were about normal. Paving.—Three miles of Rossland-Sheep Lake No. 3b were pulvimixed by Department forces. Construction and Reconstruction.—Relocation of the Trail-Castlegar Highway with a bridge elimination at Murphy Creek, requiring a fill and multi-plate culvert, was 90 per cent completed during the fiscal year. Snow Removal.—A higher than usual snowfall was experienced. District crews were expanded to keep a 24-hour service on all route highways. Bridges Usual annual repairs were needed on all structures. Soundings were carried out at the new Trail Bridge, as required annually. Soundings at the Columbia crossing at Kinnaird disclosed river-bed erosion downstream between No. 2 and No. 3 piers. A footwalk attached to the C.P.R. bridge at Castlegar was completed and in use early in April, 1964. Ferries Usual cable repairs were required on Renata and Castlegar ferries, with minor delays only in the schedules resulting. Low water at Castlegar ferry caused a few days' interruption of service for tractor-trailer combinations. These were rerouted via Trail and Nelson. REGION No. 4 (R. G. Harvey, Regional Highway Engineer, Prince George) Atlin, Cariboo (North), Fort George, North Peace River, Omineca, Prince Rupert, Skeena, and South Peace River Electoral Districts Atlin (North) District Atlin (North) District has three maintenance establishments, these being at Atlin, Telegraph Creek, and Good Hope Lake. At Atlin the winter was not too severe, and little damage was sustained due to the spring break-up. During the year, spot gravelling and bridge repairs kept the crew busy. At Telegraph Creek, repairs were made to the village sidewalks, and some reconstruction was done to the Telegraph Creek-Dease Lake Road across the lava beds, where the roadway was crumbling badly. Good Hope Lake camp, the largest, which maintains the road from the Cassiar mine, removed a rock point and raised some low grade toward the mine, and also made an extensive revision to a bad stretch of road between Watson Lake and the camp, known as Mud Hill, where two through cuts and a new creek crossing will eliminate some steep grade and poor alignment. Several miles of regravelling were done to the Stewart-Watson Lake Highway. Plans were made to create a new camp at the south end of Dease Lake at Mile 160. This will assist with the maintenance of the new sections of the Stewart-Watson Lake Highway, as they are taken over when the projects are completed. At present 254 miles of highway are being maintained by Good Hope Lake, situated at Mile 64. Atlin (South) District Roads Maintenance.—In the main, no difficulty was experienced with ordinary maintenance, but storm damage in the late fall in the vicinity of Alice Arm caused considerable trouble. REGIONAL REPORTS C 99 Construction.—On the Stewart-Hyder Road, 1.60 miles in rock were widened to a 30-foot subgrade. Several dry masonry retaining-walls were eliminated. A course of % -inch screened gravel was laid on the Stewart Arterial Highway. Snow Removal.—Snow-removal operations in the district were normal. The total snowfall at Stewart was 265 inches, and at Alice Arm was 146 inches. Cariboo (North) District Roads Maintenance.—General maintenance was carried out on all district roads. The Kersley section of the Cariboo Highway required extensive repair to pavement breaks caused by frost heaves. The Barkerville Road was treated for dust control with four carloads of calcium chloride over 35 miles. Guard-rail on the Cariboo Highway was cleaned, and the shoulders at guardrail sprayed with chemicals for weed control. Two major landslides were stabilized—namely, the Hixon South Slide and the Dragon Creek fill failure. An appreciable amount of gravelling was carried out in the Nazko Valley and the Punchaw area. Construction.—Reconstruction was carried out on 3.6 miles of the Barkerville Road, and 5.3 miles were pulverized. Pulvimix was laid on 2.1 miles of the Quesnel-Hydraulic Road, and 1.1 miles from the previous year were remixed. Sundry gravelling was carried out on the Nazko, Quesnel-Hydraulic, Fraser, and Blackwater Roads. Twenty thousand tons of crushed gravel was stockpiled on the Blackwater Road for pulvimix next year. Snow Removal.—Snowfall was heavier in all areas, falling quite frequently rather than in heavy falls. This required continuous ploughing. The use of chemicals was not as successful as previous years due to prolonged sub-zero temperatures. Bridges A new 184-foot bridge was completed over the Blackwater River in the Nazko Valley. The Erickson, Nataniko, Bastin, and Williams Creek Bridges were rebuilt. Extensive repairs were carried out on the Cinema, Fraser, Nazko, and Quesnel Bridges. Four mining-bridges on the Cariboo Hudson Road were replaced with box culverts. Ferries Approach ramps on the Gravelle and Marguerite ferries were repaired after high water. Full plumbing was installed in the Soda Creek and Marguerite Ferrymen's houses. Fort George District Roads Maintenance.—Normal maintenance was carried out on all district roads and included additional gravelling on many. A very wet season retarded improvements to some roads, and the rapidly increasing demands for improvements and services near Prince George seem hardly to have been met. Day-labour work east of McBride completed the upgrading of Highway No. 16 to Tete Jaune Cache, and a reasonable gravel road now exists which should serve the area until new construction is completed. REGIONAL REPORTS C 101 Snow Removal.—Heavy and frequent snowfalls kept operations busy, with particularly heavy demands for service. Pavements were kept mostly bare by frequent ploughing and use of salt. Bridges Normal maintenance was carried out on bridges. Two bridges on the John Hart-Peace River Highway were replaced with precast concrete-stringer type structures. Ferries The Isle Pierre ferry operated all year with a light volume of traffic. The Hansard ferry operated during the summer season on a 24-hour basis and carried very heavy volumes of traffic. North Peace River District This was a busy year for North Peace River District, owing partly to considerable expansion in the outlying farming areas and also due to a new school policy which grouped the rural one-room schools to three or four main centres. This grouping meant that many miles of poor-standard dirt roads had to be immediately brought up to an all-weather standard. Sixty miles in all were gravelled in all directions around Fort St. John, and a large proportion of this mileage had to be ditched, brushed back, and have culverts installed. One of the biggest problems was the shortage of gravel, hauls of 30 miles being not uncommon. A major revision on the Fort St. John-Alberta Highway at the south side approach to the Beatton River was constructed, thus eliminating a series of bad slides. On the Alaska Highway at Mile 41, part of a 10-foot-diameter multi-plate culvert through a 40-foot fill collapsed, and a new 48-foot section was installed. Burning of the clearing debris on the Hudson Hope Road from Lynx Creek to the dam-site was commenced. A 4-mile revision to the Hudson Hope Road was commenced from Lynx Creek to Hudson Hope, with a large cut through coarse gravel at one end and a much improved grade at the other; this work will be completed in time for 1965 paving. A pre-cut house was assembled for the foreman at Hudson Hope, and a concrete-block oil shed was built for the yard at Fort St. John. A rush repair job was done during the spring break-up to the 4-mile access road to the new Peace River Bridge at Hudson Hope. The 4 miles were heavily gravelled with pit-run, and several culverts were installed. Two miles north of Fort St. John, the large fill over Fish Creek slid out, due to unstable fill material and increased water volume from faster run-off. A 192-foot trestle bridge with a 50-foot steel I-beam centre span was installed to replace the inadequate 6-foot culvert. A new channel was cut to keep the creek away from the embankment. Perforated pipe for the side slopes and channel protection are planned. For the British Columbia Hydro and Power Authority, the district extended the Hudson Hope airstrip a further 800 feet and constructed a parking area for the aeroplanes. The strip was then treated with Bunker C oil. Some road work and car-parking facilities were provided at the B.C. Hydro offices at the dam-site, and an estimate and design were prepared for the complete reconstruction of the Lookout Road in readiness for paving. A bridge crossing of the Blueberry River was located, and clearing of the right- of-way is partly finished. A 0.6-mile revision was made to the road down to the Clayhurst ferry because of bad slides, and better grade and alignment were achieved. C 102 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 A mishap occurred at the Halfway River Bridge on the Hudson Hope Road when a truck hit one of the main members of the Howe truss, causing the whole 180-foot structure to collapse. The river was frozen at the time, and no serious injuries were sustained. The district drove a centre pile pier and placed a temporary Bailey Bridge span to restore the bridge to normal traffic. All in all, the winter was not too severe, snow was not too heavy, although the temperatures were lower than normal. Snow-ploughing, crack-filling, and general maintenance were completed satisfactorily. Omineca (East) District Roads Maintenance.—Normal maintenance was carried out on district roads, but work was hampered by wet weather. Reditching and gravelling of several miles of the Vanderhoof-Stuart Lake and other side roads was undertaken. Construction.—Included in the construction programme was the reconstruction, widening, and grade-strengthening of 19 miles of the Northern Trans-Provincial Highway, as well as smaller jobs on district secondary roads. Twelve miles of a joint project to supply access to Indian villages north of Fort St. James was started. Snow Removal.—Snowfall was heavy and weather generally cold. Demands for snow-clearing were much heavier than in previous years. Generally, less ice than usual was experienced on district roads. Bridges Normal maintenance was carried out on all district bridges. Floods caused damage to several bridges in the Germansen Landing area, with one bridge being washed out. Repairs and replacements were effected after high water. Omineca (West) District Roads Maintenance.—General maintenance throughout the district was hampered by an extremely wet summer and fall. Ditching became impossible, and improvements to side roads were curtailed by the wet soil conditions. Chemical brush control had to be cancelled. Construction. — Ditching, shoulder-widening, and minor improvements were conducted by Department forces along two sections of the Northern Trans-Provincial Highway—Telkwa to Hungry Hill, 14 miles, and Burns Lake to Tintagel, 7 miles— in conjunction with paving projects; 2.1 miles of the Colleymount Road along Francois Lake were reconstructed; 11.7 miles of the Topley Landing Road were ditched and gravelled; and 6.5 miles of the Babine Road were also ditched and gravelled. Subdivision roads in the Burns Lake area were regravelled and improved. Five and one-half miles of the Granisle Copper Access Road along Babine Lake northwest of Topley Landing were successfully cleared and stripped during the winter months in a joint effort with a mining company, the Department of Mines and Petroleum Resources, and the Department of Highways. Snow Removal.—Snowfall was much above normal until early February and light thereafter. However, with thawing and a late cold spell in March, frozen culvert problems were the worst ever experienced. Sanding and chemical requirements were about average. C 104 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 Bridges A combination of late secondary run-off and a warm front accompanied by heavy thunder-storms triggered extensive flooding comparable to that of 1948 in the Topley-Houston section of the Upper Buckley River valley on May 29th, 30th, and 31st. Two bridges were washed out and several damaged. Four large culverts were also washed out and many badly scoured. An extensive rebuilding programme was undertaken by district forces, and all repairs were completed by spring. The Carroll Bridge (No. 19) was constructed for farm access purposes. Dominic (No. 1), Graveyard (No. 152), and Meadows (No. 2) on the Topley Landing Road were reconstructed as a result of the spring flood. The Findlay Creek Bridge (No. 121), badly damaged in the same flood, was temporarily repaired, and all materials for a new glulam structure were purchased. Houston Bridge (No. 35) on the Northern Trans-Provincial Highway required considerable repair on the substructure as a result of driftwood damages. The Burns Lake Trestle (No. 14) on Highway No. 35 was completely repainted by Department forces, and the Sheraton Trestle (No. 155) east of Burns Lake, recently abandoned by reconstruction of the Northern Trans-Provincial Highway, was dismantled and salvaged. Ferries The Francois Lake Ferry M.V. "Jacob Henkel " again completed a successful year's operation. However, as a result of the severe December cold spell, service was suspended on January 2, 1965, and remained out of service until April 30, 1965. During the freeze-in the ferry received a complete overhaul. The docks required only minor routine maintenance. Buildings and Yards Burns Lake.—Footings for the steam-clean and wash-down bay addition to the equipment shed were completed. The equipment yard was completely paved with hot-mix asphalt. Southbank.—An extension for a furnace-room was added to the garage. Material to complete the garage exterior was purchased. Two 1,000-gallon storage tanks and fuel-dispensers were also installed. The ferry maintenance shed on the South- bank wharf was completed. Houston.—The office, parts, and upstairs storage-rooms in the garage were completely repainted. Prince Rupert District Maintenance.—Normal maintenance was carried out in the Prince Rupert area and on the Queen Charlotte Islands. Calcium chloride was again applied within the built-up areas of the Queen Charlotte Islands, with varied effectiveness due to weather conditions and road-surface conditions. Snow Removal.—A prolonged winter with record or near-record snowfalls forced expenditures far above normal. As a result of lower temperatures than usual, the snow built up along the higher levels and at times permitted only the passage of one-way traffic. Both snow removal and sanding continued when necessary on an around-the-clock basis. Construction.—On the Queen Charlotte City-Masset Road, an 18-mile section was reconstructed to a subgrade width of 30 feet. A course of pit-run gravel was laid on it. The north approach to the Watun River Bridge was reconstructed also. General improvements were made to the Port Edward-Cassiar Cannery Road by widening and improving sight distance. REGIONAL REPORTS C 105 Riprap was laid on 3.5 miles of the Northern Trans-Provincial Highway along the Skeena River. Gravel from the Kloiya Bay Reserve was stockpiled. Bridges Many bridges were cleaned and painted. Several were redecked, and three were shortened by replacing some bays with fills. Materials were purchased to permit a stepped-up maintenance programme in the coming year. Buildings and Yards Minor maintenance was carried out on most buildings throughout the year. Additional land was acquired for the Prince Rupert yard, and this was partially developed by the placing of a fill. Skeena (East) District Roads Maintenance.—Routine maintenance was carried out on all roads throughout the district. Considerable damage and related problems were created by the high waters in early June. The Northern Trans-Provincial Highway was closed on two separate occasions due to flooding in the Cedarvale area, with as much as 48 inches of water over the road. The Kitwanga ferry on the Skeena River was severely damaged when the flood waters collapsed the towers on both sides of the river. Stoney Creek Bridge on the Kitwanga-Hazelton Road was washed out, isolating the Kitwanga area until a temporary crossing was installed to accommodate light traffic. The Northern Trans-Provincial Highway was severed for the third time due to a large slide in the Bulkley Canyon sections during mid-September. Construction.—Summer day-labour work consisted of the reconstruction of the Hazelton High Level Road from the Hagwilget Bridge to Hazelton (3.50 miles) and the reconstruction of a 2.0-mile section of the Babine Lake Road. The programme was extended in the early winter to include the reconstruction of a 4.3-mile section of the Kispiox Road and the widening of the Northern Trans- Provincial Highway between Telkwa and Smithers to facilitate a base-strengthening and paving project next year. Snow Removal.—Snowfall throughout the district was on a par with last year. Extremely cold temperatures prevailed throughout most of December and January. All roads were kept open and in good condition throughout the winter. Bridges Normal maintenance was carried out on all bridges. A 94-foot treated glulam structure was erected at Moricetown Canyon, replacing an old Howe truss. Ferries The reaction ferry at Cedarvale provided normal service throughout the summer months, except during high water in early June. The Kitwanga ferry was severely damaged during the June floods and was not restored to service. Skeena (West) District Roads Maintenance.—Spring load restrictions were applied March 2, 1964, and were rescinded on May 8th. Break-up period was lengthy, and damage to side roads C 106 HIGHWAYS REPORT, 1964/65 was considerable. A late warm spring led to flooding by the Skeena River. A total of 15 miles of the Northern Trans-Provincial Highway west of Terrace was flooded by 3 feet of water. Damage to the shoulders of the highway was great. Riprap repairs to these sections continued through to the end of the fiscal year. Construction.—Capital funds were issued for riprap work on the Northern Trans-Provincial Highway prior to the flooding, consequently a camp, quarry, compressors, drills, etc., were well established to take care of resultant flood damage. Approximately 150,000 tons of shot rock were placed to protect the highway shoulders. Work on Kitimat Indian Village Road continued, with 1,200 feet of road being built and 15,000 yards of rock excavated. In October, construction of subdivision roads in Lakelse Lake area was started, 1.5 miles being completed. Snow Removal.—Snowfall was greater than average. Two hundred inches fell at Kitimat and 260 inches at Salvus. There were periods during January and February when the roads were actually narrowed to one-way traffic. The Northern Trans-Provincial Highway west of Terrace was blocked by 26 snowslides for three days in mid-January. Bridges Kalum Bridge, a Howe truss, was redecked and the floor beams were renewed early this year. Flood damage to the older short-span wooden bridges west of Terrace was considerable. The district bridge crew was occupied from mid-June until Christmas replacing ballast walls on these bridges, as well as replacing many of the old wooden culverts. Ferries Copper and Usk reaction ferries, across the Skeena River, were in service until mid-November, 1964. Ice crossings for pedestrians only were maintained through the months of December and January. South Peace River District Roads Maintenance.—A devastatingly wet summer following a heavy run-off created an unprecedented number of maintenance problems throughout the district. Repairing of run-off damage was barely completed when a 4.5-inch rainfall was recorded during a 24-hour period on June 28th. Two successive floods occurred in the middle of July and the beginning of August. Resulting damage of these floods included 12 serious land-slips located along two short stretches of the Alaska Highway and the destruction of three main bridges, the most important one being the Bissette Bridge (No. 6) located on Highway No. 2 one-half mile south of Pouce Coupe. Approximately 1,000 feet of Highway No. 2 were washed out by the flooding of Tupper Creek 1 mile north-west of the Alberta Border. In general, severe damage was done to various areas of all trunk highways, and the condition of all roads was greatly deteriorated due to the excessive increase in the volumes of water coursing the drainage systems. Pavement-patching and crack-filling fell slightly short of completion due to weather conditions. It is currently noted that pavement-cracking was relatively increased during the recent winter. The total length of side roads high-graded was 22.8 miles. Highway-signing was extensive, involving the posting of all danger areas as well as maintaining the normal programme. REGIONAL REPORTS C 107 Construction.—A total of 8.6 miles of the John Hart-Peace River Highway, from Mile 149.2 (Silver Sands) to Mile 157.8 (Coyote Creek), was widened, gravelled, and improved in preparation for paving. A 1-mile section of Highway No. 2 from Bissette Creek was strengthened and reditched in preparation for paving. On Road No. 3, Rolla to Clayhurst, four major fills were excavated, new multi- plate pipes installed, and fills reconstructed and gravelled. A total of 37.2 miles of side roads was newly gravelled and 47.4 miles re- gravelled. Snow Removal. — Although the amount of snowfall was considerably below average, the cost of snowploughing was abnormally high due to the continual drifting conditions. Large amounts of sand and chemicals were used to control ice conditions during the early part of the winter. Bridges A total of 10 bridges was constructed during the year. They were Link (No. 11), Lillico (No. 15), Marten (No. 16), and Big Boulder (No. 17), all of which were reconstructed under normal conditions. Maurice Creek (No. 233), Bissette Creek (No. 6), Gunter (No. 69), and Brassey Creek (No. 65) were destroyed by flooding and later reconstructed. Tupper (No. 236), Cairns (No. 14), and Windrem (No. 33) were constructed as replacements for inadequate culverts. Routine maintenance was kept up on most bridges. Ferries Ferry operation was hindered by high water for a two-week period in June. Aside from that, ferry operation was satisfactory throughout the year. ■■•'• ... ■■..-._■;:.

Capital expenditures incurred under the Trans-Canada Highway Agreement again declined sharply during this period, but a high volume of spending was maintained in all other areas. Increased expenditures for maintenance of highways, bridges, and ferries is reflected in the graph overleaf, and it will be noted that a total of 27.1 per cent of the budget was expended on maintenance work. Winter maintenance costs of snow removal and ice control contributed largely to the general increase in maintenance, as many areas of the Province experienced the most severe snow and ice conditions on record.
