Trans-Taiga Road (2004)


vel road that runs 666 km east from near the top end of the James Bay Road. It was built to access the various dams and generating stations that extend upriver along the La Grande River.

The road from Brisay(km 582) to Caniapiscau is rougher and a 4-wheel drive vehicle is recommended by Hydro Quebec. For most of the length it runs through taiga: spruce and jack pine forest, bogs, rocks, and low hills. This is about all you'll see apart from birds and some wildlife, the occasional cabin a short distance off the road, and Hydro Quebec installations.
