193 [PGBSC Blog] Traveling to Williams Lake Friday 24 feb 2012 - Highway 97 closed

Subject: Highway 97 closed

 

 

thought that this travel advisory might be of interest to folks traveling to WL this afternoon:

 

Highway 97 Both directions Closed in both directions 5.5 km north of Junction with Highway 26, in Quesnel because of Vehicle Incident. Estimated time of opening is 4:00 pm. Confidence level low. Next update 11:30 am. No Detour available. Updated on Fri Feb 24 at 10:11 am. (ID# 129337) (http://www.bchighway.com/report/cariboo.shtml).

 

Should probably wait before heading down until that closure is cleared up.

 

In addition to that closure, road conditions are sketchy all the way down.
