Photo showing - NSP Article - Eleven Miles Out. Now almost eleven miles from the end of Haisla Boulevard, the Kitimat-Terrace highway has stretched to within six miles of the Kitimat river bridge. This part of the roadbed is still very much in the making, but several miles of roadway nearer to the Kitimat townsite are at finished grade and surface. Workmen driving over the highway report the finished part "a pleasure to travel."

Photograph of the Terrace-Kitimat Highway in which it has been the subject of talk by both Terrace residents and Kitimatians for a long time. Kitimatians taking every advantage of the wonderful weather over the weekend, took their families out for a drive to Hirsch creek bridge, the farthest they can go on the Kitimat end of the highway. Cars are seen lining along the highway near the bridge.
