BC Highway 5 Passing Lanes at Darfield
For Dawson Civil, construction of new passing lanes on B.C. Highway 5 between Barriere and Little Fort, near Darfield, was a project tailor-made for our company.
A new three-kilometre southbound passing lane was added and the existing northbound passing lane wasextended by 2.7 kilometres. Improvements to the intersection at the junction of Highway 5 and Boulder Mountain Road were also be completed as part of this project. The additions improved safety along this stretch of the Yellowhead Highway north of Kamloops.
Our company was awarded the $8.8-million contract for the project, which was completed in the fall 2018.

Dawson Civil actively seeks out working partnerships with other groups and companies to provide the highest quality services across a wide range of opportunities.
Our partnerships with First Nations bands have led to completion of successful projects in many areas.

Through partnering, especially with First Nations, we are in a position to be able to offer services in ways not typically available to construction companies.
