  Why could they not have driven the old highway while you still could to do a side by side comparison. How grand would it be to have decent footage of the old highway.

  I believe Port Moody was asking for rail transport to New Westminster in 1896, and now they finally have it!

  That is one scary piece of road. The mountain it is on is fractured rock you can not build a tunnel through nor widen the road bed.

  If the photologs program started earlier than 65 there must be footage of what the area looked like before the Hope Slide buried in a warehouse somewhere.

  Now we just need 1966 highway 95 Golden to Cranbrook which in those days takes us through Kimberley and should get a little glimpse of the Sullivan mine too. Also the other 2 parts of highway 3A to make it that way's Castlegar to Creston we already have Nelson-Balfour we just need Castlegar-Nelson, the east shore, and hopefully a picture of the Anscomb pulling up. We almost have a complete street view of the Kootenays from 1966 it's amazing that we were using better technology on highways back then than the Americans or the other Canadians.

  Awesome! I remember driving this several times back in 1966 when I lived in Victoria. It brings back great memories. Thank you so much for posting these important archives. Job well done!

  I got chills. Nash Hardware, Lindsays, I wish they had diverted up the Main Street (Commercial). I would love to have seen that. I was hoping for a better shot of the Civic Arena but just saw the upper facade. I was disappointed that the whole Terminal park was completely washed out I saw Safeway, but prior to that I should have seen Dairy Queen with their cool neon ice cream sign and the Putt Putt gold but I just saw a bunch of washed out yellow signs.

  It's amazing that the Bombi didnt open until the 70s but the connection for it in Castlegar is already being built. Must have looked like a road to nowhere for years though.

  I read a newspaper article from the mid 60's that referred to the overpass on the Ootischenia side of the bridge was referred to as "Castlegars' Follie" as, for a few years anyway; the Kinnaird bridge - massive as it is - was only serving to connect Castlegar to it's tiny airport. It took a few years to finish the new Brilliant Bridge and took another decade before the dirt connection to Salmo (today's current Highway 3) was finally paved. So, to some.... it was a massive connection to nowhere.

  @gencreeper647626 күн бұрын

  ​@@That_AMC_Guy Interesting. How long until the Kinnaird bridge was useful for the Nelson-Balfour route? I was surprised to find that apparently the old Castlegar ferry lasted until the 80s implying there wasnt a real bridge connection for awhile.

  One thing I notice in these is that BC highways seemed to have a lot more metal "guardrail" type barriers back then but we seem to have taken a hard turn back to the old kind of concrete blocks and it seems like BC is now one of the rarest places to see a guardrail on a highway instead of concrete. Was there some kind of major disaster between then and now that got BC to mostly switch back to cement barriers? I know guardrails are (in)famous now for how dangerous they are when improperly installed.

  The road from Clinton to 100 Mile has changed quite a bit. It's straightened out with all those those curves removed and 4 lanes now for a lot of it and it bisects the old road. The old alignment still exists and is driveable but it's broken up into individual sections. It's accessible from the new highway.

• 
  @user-fw6tc9yy9j4 ай бұрын

  Amazing how similar the road is today, especially between Cache Creek and Clinton, except for a few passing lanes, its the same road (with much less traffic)

  I'm sure the I90 thru the Snoqualmie Pass is nothing for people in the BC lol but for someone from Seattle like me and drives a 26foot box truck through it a lot going to Eastern Washington, it SUCKS and although chains aren't always required there, the electronic signs tell u then u start seeing State Patrol units parked to make sure tires have chains on, they only give u like a 30min limit for putting chains
