What drives Bathurst prices
Bathurst is a northern New Brunswick market on the Hwy 11 corridor. Mining and forestry define its heritage, and the economy leans on the resource industries that built the town. Hwy 11 runs the province's north shore and keeps Bathurst tied to the rest of the region. A northern town on a single corridor, with a mining and forestry past, takes its prices from its location and the freight those industries keep moving. The corridor is the connection, and the resource base is the load.
