Police caution area motorists about winter road conditions

Barriere RCMP report there were two motor vehicle accidents in the area the morning of Nov. 23, both in Fish Trap Canyon.  Police say both accidents were due to the slick winter conditions, but luckily only minor injuries were reported.

Motorists are reminded to ensure they have good winter tires, and to drive to the conditions.

In the mornings, before the sun has a chance to reach into the curves of the canyon and melt any overnight accumulations of snow or ice, the roads can be very slippery.  Police ask motorists to please drive with extra care during the winter season.
