    On Wednesday morning, December 18, all lanes of the highway will be closed for a short period of time and motorists should plan for this delay.

    During the next couple of days there could be some traffic impacts on the Trans-Canada Highway (TCH) between the Riverside Drive and Marble Mountain interchanges. One of the eastbound lanes of the TCH in the area will be closed and motorists should anticipate traffic slowdowns and delays. On Wednesday morning, December 18, all lanes of the highway will be closed for a short period of time and motorists should plan for this delay. An update will be provided tomorrow on December 17, regarding the timing of the closure on Wednesday.

    The temporary lane reduction and closure are necessary to facilitate highway maintenance work in the area. Speed reductions will be in place and motorists are advised to please exercise caution in the area, be vigilant and slow their speeds.
