Meziadin Junction is a work camp used by highway workers and loggers. A restaurant and gas bar are located there. Many old cars end up there, as with ruined tires. Across the highway is the park at Meziadin Lake, a wonderfully beautiful location. Meziadin Junction really is the edge of civilization with the road north going through hundreds of kilometers of wilderness.

The highway north was unpaved from many years after its completion in 1972, and the local lava beds were terrible on tires.^{[citation needed]} The highway has since been paved.
