British Columbia Highway 25, also known as the Terrace–Kitimat Highway, was a 59 km (37 mi) long spur of the Yellowhead Highway in the Regional District of Kitimat-Stikine. First opened on 28 September 1957 at a cost of $3.5 million ($34.83 million in 2022),[4][5] it provides a connection from Terrace, on Highway 16, south to Kitimat.[6] It received the number 25 in 1964. In 1986, Highway 25 was renumbered and absorbed by Highway 37. As part of the renumbering, Highway 37 follows a 91 km (57 mi) concurrency with Highway 16 between Kitwanga, the former southern terminus of Highway 37, and Terrace.[7]
