Travel Advisory issued for the Lethbridge County Highway area

Please be advised the Lethbridge RCMP is issuing a Travel advisory for the Lethbridge Surrounding Area. 

Blowing Snow is creating zero visibility conditions and the highways are becoming icy and hazardous. Multiple collisions have already taken place this morning and Police are encouraging motorists on the Lethbridge area highways to not travel.

If you must travel, please drive to the conditions, ensure your headlights are on and increase your stopping distances. Bring warm winter gear in case of problems and increase your spacing between vehicles to ensure you have enough room to react should something unexpected happen.

Wind and blowing snow is expected to drop off by tomorrow.
