Rainfall, washouts hit region as roads brace for floods

Fifteen years ago this week BC Forest Service logged 3.5 inches of rain over three days while Wales and Bickford outposts recorded 4.3 and 4.4 inches. Hart Highway stood firm but Hudson Hope Road flooded Deadman Creek. A 20 by 20 foot section of road and a large culvert failed, a log bridge at Moberly Lake washed out. Centurion Creek eroded 120 feet of shoulder as water rose to 18 inches. Fort St. John Lumber Mill closed due to muddy yard and water intake. Village Commission discussed flood damage and Windrem routing, seeking a solution to crossing the rail line. Silt in mains and heaters raised concerns, and costs were deemed tough but solvable.

The plan estimates a first-year cost of $35 million and would expand in a second phase to all others without current coverage.
