    Riverside Drive has been closed to motorists since April 2nd. 

    The clean up has started on Riverside Drive but there are more trees in the landslide area than was first expected. A landslide in the area early last month swept a vehicle with two people inside into the cold Humber River. Corner Brook Mayor Jim Parsons says crews were on site throughout this past weekend and safety is first. Riverside Drive has been closed to motorists since April 2nd.
