British Columbia provincial highways

Highway 95 is a north-south highway in the southeastern corner of British Columbia, opened in 1957. The highway connects with U.S. Highway 95, from which the highway takes its number, at the Canada-U.S. border at Kingsgate, just north of Eastport, Idaho. The section between the Canada-U.S. border and the Crowsnest Highway is known as the Yahk–Kingsgate Highway while the section between the the Crowsnest Highway and Golden is known as the Kootenay–Columbia Highway.

Highway 95 is one of the most overlapped highways in the province, i.e., it shares most of its route with other numbered highways.

The 329 km (204 mi) long Highway 95 begins at the international border in a small community called Kingsgate, and follows the Moyie River northeast for 11 km (7 mi) to the town of Yahk, where it merges onto the Crowsnest Highway (Highway 3). Highway 95 follows the Crowsnest Highway northeast for 72 km (45 mi) to the city of Cranbrook, where Highway 95A, designated in 1968 and following the original alignment of Highway 95 for 54 km (34 mi) through Kimberley and Ta Ta Creek, begins. From Cranbrook, it is another 7 km (4 mi) east to the Fort Steele junction, where Highway 3 hands Highway 95 off to Highway 93.
