First the trails . . . then the rough oxcart ruts . . . the wagon roads ...the automobile highways. The scattered population of British Columbia has made the construction of roads between centres a matter of vital importance, yet one of almost insurmountable dlflicultics. Mountain sides have to he blasted away... clefts and chasms tresscllcd . . . rivers bridged! With the opening of the Cariboo Highway through Fraser Canyon In 1926, the last link of British Columbia's fcreat arterial highway ... a highway unexcelled the world over as an engineering feat and one of unmatched scenic beauty . . was forged. Eastern British Columbia greeted Its western Tirothers! Markets and railways were brought closer to the farmer, the miner, the industrialist. New fields for agricultural and trade development were opened tip. ""For the ten years just past, an aggressive highway programme has been carried out. Thousands of miles of good roads and dozens of sturdy bridges have been built. Our roads system now totals 31,900 miles . , . an Increase of over 5,000 miles during the last ten years. Of this mileage, 12.C0O nig arc earth roads; 4,000 gravel roadj; and 1,000 macadam, bituminous, concrete and cement concrete. The fflpWl miles which were added to our roads systefn include: 884 miles of main trunk roads, 602 milea rif lateral roads, 281 miles of Industrial and mining roads, l.UJ miles of settlement and farm roads, and 2,000 miles of ordinary and minhtg trails. During the' years just before 1917, a large number of bridges had been constructed in the Province, nearly all of which were temporary timber structures. Since 1917, the problem of maintenance and renewal of theao structures has been n serious one, involving a large expenditure, particularly between the years 1920 and 1927. The policy has been to improve design of and workinanship on temporary bridges and to renew all the large bridges on main highways over the principal rivers with concrete and steel. Today, the valuation of our 63 miles of bridges is nine million dollars. This construction activity has distributed wages and milaries over our whole Province and has been n material md in bringing about the current period of British Columbia's prosperity.
