Fraser Canyon Highway Reopens Partially | Vancouver News

from Vancouver News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Highway 1 through the Fraser Canyon is finally reopening—sort of. After nearly two months shut down by raging wildfires, limited single-lane traffic is now allowed for about two kilometers near the Alexandra Bridge and Tunnel. B.C. Hydro’s heavy equipment is still on-site restoring power lines, causing delays up to 30 minutes and requiring pilot vehicles to guide drivers. No stopping or cycling in affected zones. The fires—Brunswick Creek (92 sq km) and Ainslie Creek (677 sq km)—remain out of control, with evacuation alerts still active for residents. Normalcy is a work in progress.
