The City of Whitehorse receives $45M from the federal government to address landslide issues on Robert Service Way. The funds will be used to implement a long-term solution to prevent future landslides, including moving the route farther from the base of the escarpment, re-grading the slope, adding vegetation, and expanding existing barriers. The investment aims to protect the land under Whitehorse International Airport and its access road to the Yukon's capital.
