Highway 97 - Cottonwood Hill

BC Major Projects Inventory: Construction started (as of 30 Sep 2025)

May be complete: the estimated completion (Q3 2026) has passed, and no newer source says so either way.

Approximate location: the source names only the municipality, so the map places this project at a point inside it (from Statistics Canada's census subdivisions), not at its site.
