Editing Whitehorse (section)

===Roads===
Surface access to Whitehorse is provided by a network of highways, including the international [[Alaska Highway]] connecting the Yukon with Alaska, British Columbia, and [[Alberta]] highway networks.

Whitehorse has been described as "pearls on a string", with its residential, industrial, and service subdivisions located along the main thoroughfares that carry traffic within city limits, with large gaps of undeveloped (often hilly) land between them. The [[Alaska Highway]] is the primary roadway, with branch roads reaching additional subdivisions. One such branch road, signed as "Highway 1A" and following Two Mile Hill Road, 4th Avenue, 2nd Avenue, and Robert Service Way, is the main access to downtown, Riverdale, and the Marwell Industrial Area.

The city road network is adequate, although it is congested during rush hours and discussions occasionally occur as to how it might better be managed, such as designating one-way streets.<ref>{{Cite web |title=YESAB Registry |url=https://yesabregistry.ca/projects/56647d97-2129-4afc-aa3f-c7a3f10ba876/comments |access-date=2022-07-20 |website=yesabregistry.ca}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|title=Whitehorse Daily Star: 'More people equals more traffic,' city reminded |url=https://www.whitehorsestar.com/News/more-people-equals-more-traffic-city-reminded |access-date=2022-07-20 |website=Whitehorse Daily Star |language=en}}</ref>
