​WESTERN FOREST PRODUCTS CARES ABOUT YOUR SAFETY.

We want you to be prepared if you drive on the logging roads we manage. Before starting your trip on the Sunshine Coast in the Powell River area, it's important to plan ahead. Here are a few things you can do:

Before You Drive

  1. Check Environment Canada for weather alerts, and be familiar with the local forecast.
  2. Check current road conditions on Twitter using @WFPRoadInfo and the #Bamfield hashtag or the feed on this website. Cellphone service is very limited and unreliable on this road. Issues like flooding and heavy industrial activity could end or significantly slow down your trip. 
  3. Ensure your vehicle is in good working order, has a full tank of fuel and is equipped with an inflated spare tire and the tools needed to change that tire.
  4. Carry water, snacks, warm clothing, blankets and road safety gear to keep you healthy during an unexpected breakdown, flooding, blown over trees or industrial activity causing delays.​

While You Drive

  1. Always drive with your headlights on. Even in the daytime.
  2. Follow the speed limit and go slower if you need to. Traveling at a high speeds on industrial roads puts everyone at risk and won't make a big difference to your overall travel time.
  3. Expect to see heavy equipment and logging trucks.
  4. Expect to see wildlife.
  5. Bridges are single lane so please take your time and yield to logging trucks.
  6. If the road is dusty and you have limited visibility please wait for the dust to settle before continuing.​
