You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.197.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 10:52, 20 August 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

The '''400-series highways''' were a pair of [[controlled-access highway]]s located in the southwestern portion of the [[Canadian province]] of [[British Columbia]], forming a special subset of the provincial highway system. Modelled after the [[400-series highways|400-Series Highways]] in [[Ontario]], 400-series designations were introduced in 1964 in conjunction with the completion of the [[Trans-Canada Highway]] freeway between [[Vancouver]] and [[Clearbrook, Abbotsford|Clearbrook]] (present-day [[Abbotsford, British Columbia|Abbotsford]]);<ref name=BC_401>((cite book |title=Frontier to Freeway: A short illustrated history of the roads in British Columbia |date=2000 |publisher=British Columbia Ministry of Transportation and Highways |pages=16–19 |url=https://www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/driving-and-transportation/reports-and-reference/reports-and-studies/frontier_to_freeway.pdf))</ref> however, unlike their Ontario counterparts, both routes had signalized sections. The 400-series system never expanded beyond two freeways, and in 1973 Highways 401 and 499 were renumbered 1 and 99 respectively, while the former routes were assigned the 'A' suffix.

Highway&nbsp;1 originally followed portions of [[Old Yale Road]] and [[Fraser Highway]] from [[Rosedale, British Columbia|Rosedale]] to Highway&nbsp;99 ([[King George Highway]]) in [[Surrey, British Columbia|Surrey]], where the two routes shared a common alignment across the [[Pattullo Bridge]] and followed a series of streets including [[Kingsway (Vancouver)|Kingsway]] and [[Main Street (Vancouver)|Main Street]] into [[downtown Vancouver]]. In 1959, Highway&nbsp;1 was extended to [[Horseshoe Bay, British Columbia|Horseshoe Bay]] via the [[Lions Gate Bridge]] and Taylor Way in [[West Vancouver, British Columbia|West Vancouver]].

Major freeway construction commenced in the late 1950s, with the [[Ironworkers Memorial Second Narrows Crossing|Second Narrows Bridge]] over [[Burrard Inlet]] opening in 1960 in conjunction with Upper Levels Highway opening through [[North Vancouver (district municipality)|North Vancouver]]; however, it was an expressway had a mix of interchanges and signalized intersections. In 1962, Highway&nbsp;1 was re-routed to a new expressway. The original [[Port Mann Bridge]] opened in 1964 in conjunction with a new highway between Vancouver and Clearbrook and was designated as ''Highway&nbsp;401'';<ref name=BC_401/> the Clearbrook-Rosedale section of Highway&nbsp;1 was restored to its original alignment and the expressway became part of Highway&nbsp;401.

The Trans-Canada Highway was designated along the newly constructed Highway&nbsp;401, while Highway&nbsp;1 between Rosedale and West Vancouver was signed as British Columbia Highway&nbsp;1 and had a regular provincial highway shield. Highway&nbsp;401 was a freeway for the majority of its length with exception of some traffic signals along the Upper Levels Highway and small section in Vancouver where it followed Cassiar Street (the sections were replaced by interchanges in the 1990s). Highway&nbsp;401 was renumbered to Highway&nbsp;1 in 1973, with former sections of Highway&nbsp;1 becoming [[British Columbia Highway 1A|Highway&nbsp;1A]].

Highway&nbsp;99 originally followed the [[King George Highway]] from the [[Canada–United States border|U.S. border]] to Highway&nbsp;1 ([[Fraser Highway]]) in [[Surrey, British Columbia|Surrey]], where the two routes shared a common alignment across the [[Pattullo Bridge]] and followed before following a series of streets including [[Kingsway (Vancouver)|Kingsway]] and [[Main Street (Vancouver)|Main Street]] into [[downtown Vancouver]]. The 1950s saw a series of Highway&nbsp;improvements connecting Vancouver and [[Richmond, British Columbia|Richmond]], with the completion of the [[Oak Street Bridge]] was built in 1957 across the [[Fraser River|North Arm Fraser River]], and the completion of the [[Deas Island Tunnel]] in 1959 across the Fraser River (renamed the George Massey Tunnel in 1967). As part of the project, an expressway was constructed connecting the Deas Island Tunnel to [[British Columbia Highway 10|Highway&nbsp;10]] – the route connecting downtown Vancouver to Highway&nbsp;10 was designated as '''Highway&nbsp;99B'''.<ref>((cite web |title=Postcard: Deas Island Tunnel, 1959 |url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/45379817@N08/9643676616 |website=Flickr |access-date=September 5, 2018 |language=en-us |date=September 1, 2013 |quote=Deas Island Tunnel conveying traffic from Richmond to Delta, BC under the Fraser River.  Constructed from March 1957 to May 23, 1959. Opened officially on July 15, 1959 by Queen Elizabeth II who was on a royal tour of Canada with Prince Philip.  The tunnel was renamed the George Massey Tunnel in 1967 after the late Nehamiah "George" Massey, former British Columbia MLA for Delta, BC (1956-60).    This 4-lane highway, which ran from downtown Vancouver to Hwy. 10 in Delta, was originally designated as Highway&nbsp;99B.  After the completion of the Deas (Island) Throughway through Delta to the U.S. border in 1962, it became Hwy. 99.  From 1964 to 1973, the route was called the '499' Freeway; Since 1974, Hwy. 99.))</ref>

In 1962, the freeway was extended to 8th Avenue in Surrey and the route (including Highway&nbsp;99B) was re-designated as ''Highway&nbsp;99''. In 1964, Highway&nbsp;99 was moved back to its former alignment and the freeway was designated as ''Highway&nbsp;499'', which also followed [[Oak Street (Vancouver)|Oak Street]] and [[Granville Street]] into downtown Vancouver where it linked with Highway&nbsp;1 and Highway&nbsp;99. Highway&nbsp;499 was renumbered to Highway&nbsp;99 in 1973, with former sections of Highway&nbsp;99 becoming [[British Columbia Highway 99A|Highway&nbsp;99A]].
