Storm may disrupt South Coast highways through the week

Wind, heavy rain and possible flooding may affect South Coast roads starting Tuesday, Nov. 10, and continuing through the week. Drivers should watch for pooling water, fallen debris and short-notice closures.

Areas expected to be most affected include:

• Highway 99 through the Sea to Sky corridor and Pemberton Valley
• Highway 1 through the Fraser Valley and Fraser Canyon
• The Malahat and western Vancouver Island communities

Transportation crews are clearing debris and drainage systems, monitoring highways and preparing to respond. Check DriveBC before travelling and leave space for maintenance crews.
