History
The actual Highway 2 designation has a more complex history than that of the highway that carries it today. When Highway 2 was first designated in 1941, it followed the present-day route of the Cariboo Highway between Cache Creek and Prince George. In 1952, Highway 2 was extended along the John Hart Highway all the way through Dawson Creek to the border between B.C. and Alberta at Tupper. In 1953, the section of Highway 2 between Cache Creek and Dawson Creek renumbered Highway 97, and the designations co-existed until 1962,[2] when the Highway 2 designation was removed from the Cariboo and John Hart Highways.
