Quebec Route 167


Route 167 is an isolated provincial highway in Quebec, Canada. It begins at the shore of Lac Saint-Jean in Saint-Félicien. It proceeds north-west to Chibougamau away. There are no services along this long stretch. At Chibougamau, the highway turns north-east towards Mistissini.
Maps are conflicting about the northernmost extent of this highway. The latest provincial road map shows the highway ending south of Mistissini, while the pavement does continue to the town itself. According to Ministère des transports publication "Distances routières", the route continues up as far as Lac-Albanel, east of Lac Mistassini.

Municipalities along Route 167

The Quebec Department of Transportation has proposed to extend Route 167 North, in the direction of the Otish Mountains, approximately 250 km to the northeast of Albanel Lake.
Construction began in February 2012. The 240 km extension to the Stornoway Renard Mine was completed in 2014.
The first deliveries of liquified natural gas, by truck, with the new road were made on June 2016 to the Renard Mine.
