DRIVE SAFE

Ice, snow and reduced visibility impact N.B. and M.L. surrounding highways

Dec 11, 2024 | 4:11 PM

Drivers and motorists planning to travel on the highway today are advised to exercise extra caution, as visibility is low, making it difficult to see the cars ahead.

The latest report from Highway Hotline indicates that the roads in North Battleford and Meadow Lake are heavily covered in ice and snow. On top of that, the highways leading to nearby cities are experiencing swirling and drifting snow, significantly reducing road visibility.
