Sahtu, Gwich’in, Pehdzéh Kı̨ leaders sign Mackenzie Valley Highway MOU – Cabin Radio
Leaders of the Sahtu Secretariat, Gwich’in Tribal Council and Pehdzéh Kı̨ First Nation signed a memorandum of understanding to advance the Mackenzie Valley Highway.
The proposed highway would create an all-season road connecting Wrigley in the Dehcho region, home of the Pehdzéh Kı̨ First Nation, to the Sahtu communities of Norman Wells, Tulita and Fort Good Hope.
Eventually, the project – which was advanced to the federal Major Projects Office in March, though it isn’t yet funded – aims to connect the Sahtu to Inuvik.
