Drive BC says people driving throughout the province this summer can get access to reliable road and weather conditions on the highways with a newly updated DriveBC platform.

It features a simplified map and a cleaner, more intuitive design for desktop and mobile users.

A new interactive map replaces the previous mobile text-based layout, offering what Drive BC calls a more visual, streamlined way to explore road conditions and updates.

The platform integrates provincial and regional travel advisories and bulletins, offering clearer updates on challenging weather conditions, emergencies and other events happening on provincial highways.

Also, the platform’s upgraded highway webcams have a simpler layout and enhanced features for faster access to real-time conditions.

Several new tools have also been added to better support both the public and commercial drivers in making travel decisions, including new detailed embedded information on border crossings, chain-up areas and inland ferries.

More features are planned in the year ahead.

The updates are based on feedback from user surveys, interviews, and consultation with the public, commercial drivers and stakeholders.
