The 1913 Road Tunnel was underneath the CPR trestle. It was used until 1964 when a new double tunnel replaced it. This one was buried until 1992 when the double tunnel was demolished and this tunnel was once again uncovered.

In 1998, The Mayor of Greenwood, Arno Hennig started painting the Flags of the World on it to hide the graffiti. He then turned it into a Millennium Project sponsored by the Greenwood Community Association, the Greenwood Heritage Society, The Greenwood Board of Trade and many local citizens and travelers.

It is located right on the Trans Canada Trail and Southern Provincial Highway #3 (Crowsnest Highway) just east of Greenwood, BC to greet all Travelers of the World! Stop and see if you can name all 200+ flags...bring a lunch and take a walk or bike along this wonderful Trail.
