Within unincorporated areas of the TNRD, maintenance of all highways and local roads is a service provided by the Province of BC through contractors. In fact, no regional district in B.C. has jurisdiction over road maintenance. This differs from the process in municipalities.
Who to Contact?
Below, find out who to contact about road maintenance depending on what type of road it is and where it is.
For maintenance of local roads that are within any municipality in TNRD, please contact the respective municipal hall directly with any inquiries.
Local roads within unincorporated areas of the TNRD or within First Nations reserve lands are maintained by the Province of BC through contractors.

Within the TNRD boundaries, maintenance of all highways is the responsibility of the Province of BC through contractors.

Resource roads within TNRD boundaries are maintained by the forest industry under road user permits, or by the B.C. Government where there is no industrial user responsible for maintenance.

Service Areas
Within TNRD boundaries, all provincial highways and local roads (outside of municipalities) are maintained by private contractors. In B.C., the boundaries for maintenance of these roads are split up into Service Areas. Due in part to its vast geography, a number of Service Area boundaries are partially, or fully, within the TNRD boundaries:
- Service Area 13 (Okanagan/ Shuswap)
- Service Area 14 (Nicola)
- Service Area 15 (Thompson)
- Service Area 16 (South Cariboo)
- Service Area 20 (Robson)
