These are some of the seven road improvement projects ICBC invested over $127,000 in last year to make Terrace, Smithers, Kitimat, Stewart, Telkwa and Kitwanga roads safer for everyone. This year marks the 25th anniversary of ICBC’s road improvement program with over $130 million invested in B.C. roads since 1990. Over the years, the road improvement program has evolved significantly. Successful partnerships, community investments and the use of innovative technology and tools have led to award winning projects and contributions that have helped advance the knowledge of the road safety engineering industry across Canada. “With projects throughout the province, ICBC’s road improvement program has been making our roads safer for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians for two and a half decades,” said Todd Stone, Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure. “From crosswalks to turn lanes, these projects make a big contribution to community safety across British Columbia.” In 2014, ICBC invested approximately $418,000 in the North Central region and $7.7 million in projects and safety audits across the province. “We’re proud of the thousands of road improvements and studies we have contributed to communities across B.C. over the last 25 years,” said Lindsay Matthews, ICBC’s director responsible for road safety. “Safer roads mean fewer crashes which also translates into lower claims costs.
