I did the stretch in winter with blowing snow at night, when it was still a 2-lane highway. Take your time, and give lots of space, although we had mostly dry pavement.
We are going to the Shuswap this summer . I drove this stretch of road 25 yrs ago to go to a family funeral. Beautiful scenery but terrible roads if your a flatlander as I was called by the B C family. The stretch of called the 10 mile hill was awful. So glad this is 4 lanes to Revelstoke. Nice video
Yes, I drove this road dozens of times, summer and winter, however, it was the old road and it was a challenge at times but I enjoyed it. The drawback was the heavy truck traffic going slow uphills. This will be over soon. The winter driving did not bother me much but I will find out how the new road will be coming December. Thanks for the nice video
Great video. I'm so glad this is finished. One of the biggest road improvements on this highway ever. I'll be driving it in about a month. Cheers.
Your videos are very helpful!! Thank you very much
You are welcome!

thanks for the video. Such a vast improvement in the highway already. Can't wait for it to be finished
Can't wait to see what it is like when done!
What a improvement over the old road.
Agreed!
Thanks for posting. Finally they are getting this stretch of highway in decent condition. This does help me with planning a summer trip east.
I think there are still some closures at times.
