Liard Highway
The Liard Highway, numbered Highway 77 in British Columbia and Highway 7 in the Northwest Territories, is a highway in Canada, which forms the sole road connection between B.C. and the Northwest Territories.
The highway officially opened to traffic in 1984 and was assigned the number 77 in 1986. Highway 77 begins at a point on the Alaska Highway 28 km (17 mi) northwest of Fort Nelson, and it travels 138 km (86 mi) northeast along an expanse of flat land to the border of British Columbia and the Northwest Territories, where it continues as a very rough dirt and gravel road under the 'Highway' 7 designation for 254 km through the Northwest Territories, ending at a junction with Highway 1 south of Fort Simpson.
