History

Founded in 1988 as part of a privatization initiative of the Province of British Columbia, the Yellowhead Road & Bridge (YRB) Group of Companies, as of the end of 2003, has provided over forty-five years of service to ten separate Road and Bridge Maintenance Contracts. Since our inception, YRB has performed road and bridge maintenance in eight different contract areas: previously, in areas #20 – Robson, #18 – North Cariboo, #28 – Stikine and #7 – Fraser Valley; presently, in areas #23 – Nechako, #22 – North Peace, #19 – Fort George and #10 – Central Kootenay.

Having been born out of the old British Columbia Ministry of Highways, YRB’s goal was to continue the high level of service that this Ministry had previously provided. Employee ownership proved to be the key to instilling in all employees the desire to perform in a superior fashion, taking pride in their job and in their contribution to the high-quality maintenance that YRB stands for.

We believe that our history of high-quality service to the Road and Bridge Maintenance Contracts speaks volumes in support of YRB’s past, present and future dedication to . . . MAINTAINING QUALITY.
