The Ministry of Natural Resources advises that due to the spring thaw, road washouts are occurring on some roads in Nipigon District.
The public is asked to exercise caution when travelling on these roads. Water on the road, washouts and heavy rutting pose a risk to traveller safety. The public should avoid travelling on unfamiliar roads or crossing any submerged roadbeds. Barricades will be erected at roads where known washouts or dangerous driving conditions have been observed.
To report a new or potential road washout, please contact the Ministry of Natural Resources office in Geraldton at 807-854-1826.
