first of several routes in British Columbia bearing a Hwy 97 route number. Altogether, there are five different routes: Hwy 97, Hwy 97A, Hwy 97B, Hwy 97C &
Hwy 97D. Hwy 1 intersects four of the five Hwy 97 routes between Sicamous and Cache Creek. Hwy 97D via Logan Lake is the only one out of the five different Hwy 97

time this photo was taken in 2015. The existing two-lane highway now forms the westbound lanes of Hwy 1, while a new two-lane roadway was built at right to carry
eastbound traffic. Due to construction staging, the new south roadway was temporarily striped to carry two-way traffic during 2015, in preparation for reconstruction
of the existing north roadway. See an Enlarged Photo Here. (Photograph taken on June 5, 2015 - © Cameron Bevers) Right - Facing west towards Kamloops along the Trans-Canada Highway (Hwy 1) about 22 km west of Chase. See an Enlarged Photo Here. (Photograph taken on June 5, 2015 - © Cameron Bevers)
