(SOUTHERN BRUCE COUNTY, ON) – The South Bruce Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is closing some area roads as another powerful winter storm passes through the area.
Bruce County Road 3 – from Burgoyne to Mildmay
Bruce County Road 86 – from Amberley to Lucknow
The closures are in effect due to high winds, blowing snow and poor to no visibility. Motorists are asked to respect the closures and avoid these roads.
The penalty for driving on a closed highway is a $110 fine and 3 demerit points, but the consequences can be far worse if you become involved in a collision, or stranded, in a white out.
The South Bruce OPP is currently dealing with motor vehicle collisions and stranded motorists in near white out conditions. Police are urging motorists to not travel until the storm passes.
Do not call police for road/weather conditions; this is not a service that we provide.
