Conditions on our Highways are improving but many of the local sides have formed a smooth ice layer with all the rain. We are working on re-gaining traction through the use of Sand trucks and Graders. Drive with caution and give extra time to reach your destination.

[YRB Vanderhoof @YRBVanderhoof]

Freezing Rain forecasted throughout the area, into the early am. Sand trucks will be out in force . Black ice possible, drive with care.

[YRB Vanderhoof @YRBVanderhoof]

Forecasted Snow Event have turned to sections of rain along Highway 16. With the negative temperatures this could lead to ice buildup. Our trucks are out sanding and plowing please be patient and Drive to Conditions.

Lots of blowing snow today on #BCHwy16 and #BCHwy27 today as snow continues to fall throughout. Be sure to keep a safe distance and use your winter driving smarts to stay safe. Keep an eye out for our plows and give them space to work. #ShiftIntoWinter
