Jumping Creek to MacDonald Snowshed

Last updated on October 2, 2025

Jumping Creek to Jack MacDonald Snowshed

The project involves the design and construction of improvements to 2.6 km of the Trans-Canada Highway 1 approximately 40 kilometres east of Revelstoke, including rockfall and avalanche mitigation, climate change resiliency and median divider and roadside barrier. 

The project is adjacent to the recently completed Illecillewaet and extends to the western end of the MacDonald Snowshed.  

Notice of work

Notification of project-related fieldwork or construction is posted on this page in advance. For the latest information on road conditions, please visit DriveBC.

Status

  • In design/construction

Project benefits

  • A safe passing opportunity to break up congestion queues
  • A divider to limit cross-over collisions
  • Roadside barrier to reduce severity of off road right collisions
  • Modern 100 km/hr highway geometrics
  • Avalanche and geohazard risk mitigation
  • Increased shoulder width for active transportation
  • Reduced greenhouse gas emissions from re-routing
