Canada-Sea to Sky engineering an amazing feat

 
Building a highway in a winding 100-kilometre corridor with a rock face on one side and a cliff dropping into the ocean on the other is no small feat. Accomplishing such a task while maintaining two-way traffic through the worksite is nothing short of amazing.
To prepare for the four-year project, 21 project managers and engineers from the consortium of companies assembled for the job walked sections of the highway. A core group of six walked the entire length of the highway before their bid was submitted to the government.
