The ice road along the Mackenzie River connects the Arctic communities of Inuvik, Aklavik and previously Tuktoyaktuk (which is now replaced by the all-weather gravel Inuvik-Tuktoyaktuk Highway in November 2017). The ice road is still built annually to connect Inuvik and Aklavik. Officially opened on November 15, 2017, the CAD$299 million 139 kilometre all-weather gravel Inuvik-Tuktoyaktuk Highway leads to the Arctic Ocean, representing the final link of a highway network connecting Canada from coast to coast to coast by land.
