#MapleRidge
- There's a loose herd of goats on Lougheed west of 280th. This is unrelated to the anti-mask demonstration that is crossing the
#CambieStBridge
in Vancouver right now. ^Rae
#AlexFraser
- The bridge is now impassable both ways with multiple buses and semis spun-out. Tows and plows have no room to operate or get to the problem areas to even have a chance to clear anything.

Hey folks, if you’re heading out on the roads today please remember to wipe off your entire car especially your roof. That sheet of snow and ice on top can fly off and impact the visibility of the driver behind you ⚠️

A truck loaded with thousands of copies of ROGET'S THESAURUS crashed yesterday losing its entire load. Witnesses were stunned, startled, aghast, taken aback, stupefied, confused, shocked, rattled, paralyzed, dazed, bewildered, mixed up, surprised, awed, and dumbfounded!
#LangleyBC
- An overheight truck on
#BCHWY1
eastbound has smashed into the Glover Rd overpass. The right lane is blocked and volume is already heavily congested from before 216 St. Expect major delays.^ih
Snow continues to blanket the entire region. Please stick to essential travel only! Still pretty early so not a ton of cars on the road right now. Be safe!!!
We are fielding lots of calls from folks coming back into Canada from the States only to to be turned away because they don't have the ArriveCAN App. It is listed right off the bat on the government of Canada website. Please make sure you do your homework before going down. ^Rae

If they need to be told to have their headlights/taillights on, they're not listening to us. But we'll try again

No stalls or crashes to report just yet on your morning commute, but it’s starting to get congested out there, and these two are lookin’ pretty sus.
Post below or call
#730
to report ^jj
Issue isn't really people not wanting/willing to turn on their headlights/taillights. It's more the automaker having the dash always illuminated making the driver not realizing their full lights aren't on. ^Rae
#FraserValley
- Extremely well-timed power line work on
