Tuesday’s wintery weather caused a number of vehicles to get stuck in heavy snow on the Trans-Canada Highway. A section of the roadway had to be closed for several hours to allow police and other agencies to clear abandoned vehicles to make way for plows to operate.
A recent blast from Mother Nature created challenging travel conditions in western Newfoundland and Corner Brook RNC were called out to multiple collisions. Tuesday’s wintery weather caused a number of vehicles to get stuck in heavy snow on the Trans-Canada Highway. A section of the roadway had to be closed for several hours to allow police and other agencies to clear abandoned vehicles to make way for plows to operate. Meanwhile, the RNC urges all motorists to plan ahead and monitor weather forecasts. Allow extra travel time, drive according to conditions and clear snow and ice from your vehicle. Keep a shovel and road salt in your trunk in case your vehicle becomes stuck.
