Babine Lake Road is open again.

Earlier this month, a bridge washed out at km 30, near Smithers. The road was closed with a detour utilizing the Granisle Connector and then it was open with a pilot car. Now it is fully opened to all traffic.

However, delays of up to 20 minutes are still expected as construction continues.
