It’ll result in four hours of intermittent closures on the highway, from 1 pm until 5 pm.

DriveBC warns of “major delays,” as closures may last up to two hours at a time.

No detours are available and travellers are advised to plan their trip around the four-hour period.

All the latest information will be available on the DriveBC website.
