Did you know that it is now illegal to drive on the roads when they are closed?? Road conditions can be checked on 511 mobile app, by calling 511, by following MBGovRoads on Twitter or visiting the 511 website on line.

If you drive on a closed highway, you could face a charge of $298 for light vehicles (cars, trucks, SUVs, etc.) or $672 for heavy vehicles.

More in this week’s RCMP report.
