Highway closure information


There's not much new on the closure of Highway 16 east of Terrace, DriveBC.com provided the following advisory, as of 5:07 pm for those looking for information.

Highway 16:

Closed in both directions 37 km east of Terrace because of Rock Slide. Road will remain closed overnight. Information will be updated by 8:00 am Tuesday May 29th. Updated on Mon May 28 at 5:07 pm. (ID# 47220)

As you can see by the photo above found on the Interior News website, the highways crews will have a rather large job ahead of them before the road is open to traffic again.

The CBC had a small item on their webpage, with a picture that shows the slide dwarfing two RCMP officers.

The CBC affiliate CFTK out of Terrace filed this report.

Global TV has a story streaming on their video webpage as well.
