At the heart of Kerrisdale, one of the City of Vancouver's most vibrant and active neighbourhoods, All Roads Construction is delivering the full reconstruction of the Arbutus & W 41st Avenue intersection - a transformative $8.4 million project with an expected 9-month construction schedule.

The project includes installation of new underground infrastructure and drainage systems, upgraded electrical/traffic signal works, full road realignment, new curbs and sidewalks, bike paths, and extensive landscaping enhancements.

Once complete, the intersection will provide safer, more accessible, and more resilient infrastructure for motorists, pedestrians, cyclists, and transit users alike.

For three consecutive years, All Roads has maintained one of the lowest employee turnover rates in the road-building industry.

According to the 2025 IBISWorld Report, British Columbia’s road-building sector includes 606 businesses employing more than 10,246 people. At the same time, the 2025 ICBA Survey reveals that 72% of B.C. contractors are facing a severe shortage of skilled tradespeople.

Together, these pressures have pushed average employee turnover in the road construction industry to an astonishing 78%.

Against this backdrop, All Roads' employee turnover rates tell a very different story:

- 2025: 6.45%
- 2024: 4.58%
- 2023: 6.19%

Built in 2020 and expanded again in 2025, the All Roads asphalt plant stands as Canada's greenest, most advanced facility of its kind. On the southern edge of the site—just 50 feet from the north bank of the mighty Fraser River—a bold new sign proudly proclaims: "Canada's Greenest Asphalt Plant." It's a fitting location. The Fraser, stretching nearly 1,400 kilometres and supporting an extraordinary diversity of fish species, is British Columbia's longest river and one of its most sensitive ecosystems. Operating responsibly here isn't optional—it's essential. Our plant achieves its industry-leading environmental performance through a carefully engineered system of high-efficiency, low-emission components, all coordinated by modern Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). This precision-driven setup minimizes fuel consumption, reduces emissions, and eliminates variability from human error. It's why we champion the use of the Best Control Technologies Available—because the results speak for themselves. Together, these systems make the claim on our sign not just accurate, but genuinely earned. This is more than an asphalt plant; it's a glimpse into the future of sustainable industrial infrastructure. Cleaner. Smarter. Greener.

How do you say goodbye to a man of whom nearly every street in the Vancouver area bears the mark of his work over the past half-century? At All Roads, we've been lucky. For the past five and a half years, we've had the privilege of working alongside a man who has spent more than half a century building the groundwork—quite literally—of our communities: Franco Pastro. And this video is our tribute to his storied career in the road building industry in BC for over 53 years!

Buckle up—our 2024 season at All Roads wasn't just successful… it was downright cinematic. Here's the quick "business-but-make-it-exciting" recap: • 176 projects won • Over $70 million in total project value • 300,000+ metric tons of asphalt produced (that's… a lot of road) But the real star of this video? Rodfather Saga: Chapter 2—our very own construction-themed mafia parody that answers questions no one asked, like: What happens when Rodfather himself patches potholes in a tuxedo? and How dramatic can a fake "off-the-books favour" really get?

For the first time in six years, Rod didn't host our 2024 year-end bash. Instead, our VP of Operations Denis Labelle stormed the stage - after launching a ruthless (and very entertaining) smear campaign, worthy of a low-budget political thriller, to dethrone Rod and secure the coveted MC title. He succeeded in toppling Rod and declared himself Master of Ceremonies for 2024. This mock "election" campaign video reveals Denis's dramatic rise to questionable power and gives you a taste of how we blow off steam after a busy year. It's all in good fun… even if Denis's methods are shady at best. Viewer discretion advised: may contain satire, ego battles, and dramatic microphone-grabbing.

In a landmark achievement for road construction, All Roads has successfully implemented Topcon's MC-Max paving technology to complete the first-ever fully autonomous highway paving project in North America. On a stretch of the Trans-Canada Highway, approximately 50 km east of Vancouver, our crew paved 10 km of highway lanes using a self-driving paver—an unprecedented milestone in the history of infrastructure development on the continent.

Move over, traffic — our crew has taken over the Cassiar Tunnels, and for one glorious night, it’s ours. We’re deep in Phase 5 of the Highway 1 paving project for the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure of BC, and this week we rolled right up to the westbound entrance of the iconic tunnels. Translation: we’ve officially hit the halfway mark! That’s 26 lane kilometers freshly paved and 16,690 tonnes of asphalt laid — all cooked up in our own eco-friendly, greenest-in-the-nation asphalt plant.

One of the most important specifications for highway paving is to avoid cold joints. A cold joint forms when asphalt from one paving pass cools before the next pass is laid alongside it. This happens when a single paver lays one lane, then returns later to pave the adjacent lane. By that time, the edge of the first pass has cooled, making it harder to bond with the new hot asphalt. Over time, these joints can become weak spots, leading to cracks and reduced pavement life. To solve this, we use multiple pavers in echelon formation. This means several pavers work side-by-side, laying fresh asphalt in unison. The hot edges bond seamlessly, creating one continuous, jointless pavement — no matter how wide the roadway. The result is a stronger, smoother surface that lasts longer and requires less maintenance.

All Roads is proud to have been awarded the fifth phase of the Highway 1 paving project, covering 57.7 lane-kilometres from the Willingdon Interchange to the Cassiar Tunnels. This milestone marks the successful continuation of our work with the Ministry of Transportation and Transit, following the completion of the previous four phases. The total contract value for this phase is $7,449,000.

In this educational video, Rod Stephens, President of All Roads Construction, bares it all and gives an in-depth explanation of what makes this facility the greenest asphalt plant in Canada. He explains everything about how asphalt plant works! Specifically, he highlights 16 key factors that contribute to its environmental leadership.

Vancouver is known as Canada’s greenest city—and for good reason. Living here means embracing a lifestyle that values sustainability, clean energy, and a low carbon footprint. So, imagine the challenge of running an industrial facility in a place that holds environmental responsibility to the highest standard! Enter All Roads. Despite the tough environmental testing requirements set by Metro Vancouver (and they are tough), we’ve not only met them—we’ve exceeded them. How? With our state-of-the-art Blue Smoke Capture System, a game-changing innovation in asphalt production.
