Hartley Bay Ring Road

Gitga'at First Nation is planning to construct a road which rings the Hartley Bay community, linking the community barge ramp to the newly constructed Upper Lake Road and Malsey Bay road. The construction of a ring road will improve access around Hartley Bay, movement of materials, function as a fire break, and an emergency egress route.

 

The proposed ring road is 1148.8m long, with an approximate 20m wide limit of cut (right-of-way). The proposed ring road would parallel an existing road right-of-way and fire break for the majority of its length. The road will require 11 culverts, where the road alignment crosses drainages and non-fish bearing stream channels as well as a 21.336m all steel portable clear spanning bridge constructed over the fish bearing Gabion River.

 

The proponent has applied to Environment and Climate Change Canada for a Species at Risk Act permit under section 73(3).
