Kicking Horse Canyon
Phase 4

Kicking Horse Canyon Phase 4 is the last phase of Highway 1 widening just outside of Golden, BC. The project included 4 bridges and 7 viaducts, including the longest MSE wall in 5 kilometres of upgrade. All bridges and viaducts were built on piles drilled into the bedrock. The existing 6KM, 2-lane stretch of winding Highway 1 was transformed into a smooth 4-lane straight highway. The total budget for the project was $700 million. NHKS provided Quality Management Services on behalf of the Province.
