The plan is to have the trans-Labrador road completed between Cartwright and
Happy Valley-Goose Bay by 2010, cutting out one ferry ride.

Quebec just announced plans to finish the north shore road on the Gulf of
St. Lawrence between Sept Iles and the Labrador border. Not sure of the
timeline.

Once it's done that will be one heck of a loop!
