Asphalt surfacing at Highway 33

  • Project: Asphalt Surfacing Highway 33 Carmi to Big White
  • Location: Approximately 33 km south of Kelowna and 10 km north of Beaverdell
  • Contract Amount: $6.5 million

The 39.5-kilometre long section of highway from Carmi Creek to Big White Road required resurfacing, repairs and the removal and replacement of guardrail.

Emil Anderson Construction Ltd.’s commitment to excellence ensured the project ran smoothly with minimal disruptions for motorists. Emil Anderson Construction Ltd. addressed issues when they arose and worked effectively with stakeholders, including the Village of Big White.

Project Manager Alicia Kosolofski and Ministry Representative Hugh Eberle worked along with Emil Anderson Construction Ltd. to ensure the project was completed on budget and on time. 


All Roads Construction Ltd.

Asphalt resurfacing at Highway 1

  • Project: Asphalt Resurfacing - Highway 1: Willingdon to Burnaby
  • Location: Highway 1 between the Willingdon Avenue interchange and the Gaglardi Way interchange
  • Contract Amount: $7.4 million

The section of Highway 1 from the Willingdon to Gaglardi Interchanges in Burnaby was assessed as requiring resurfacing and the remediation of deficiencies in the riding surface. This project saw Highway 1 receive an overlay of 50 millimetres of asphalt from the Willingdon to Gaglardi Interchanges and included milling, paving, utility adjustments, barrier removal and replacement, as well as the reinstatement of lane lines and reflectors.

All Roads Construction Ltd.’s traffic management procedures ensured the safe movement of traffic through the work zone. The smooth-ride system was introduced to improve ride in one pass of asphalt, which resulted in increased productivity and minimal impact to traffic. All Roads Construction utilized the notched safety wedge to enhance safety and create a durable pavement edge and the intelligent compaction system on the breakdown roller to improve mix density.

All Roads Contruction Ltd. prioritized traffic management and environmental sensitivity, as they ensured petrochemicals from the site were not introduced into a nearby fish habitat and lake ecosystem. All Roads Construction Ltd. worked with Project Manager Doug Hyde and Ministry Representative Jason Jackson to complete the project on budget and on time.
