The year of its publication—1986—marked a major turning point for this route. In May 1986, British Columbia opened the Coquihalla Highway (Highway 5), which provided a much faster, four-lane inland route between Hope and Kamloops. This book serves as a timely tribute to the original, more scenic Trans-Canada Highway (Highway 1) route just as it was being bypassed by major commercial traffic on the new route.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eISBN: 9780919214762  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eGC\u0026amp;C Stock #5339\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gillmore Coins \u0026 Collectibles","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67961428934886,"sku":"5339","price":15.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/6212\/8614\/files\/5339_1.jpg?v=1793808991","url":"https:\/\/gillmore.ca\/products\/fraser-thompson-river-canyons-trans-canada-highway-vancouver-to-kamloops-1986-1st-ed","provider":"Gillmore Coins \u0026 Collectibles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
