Highway Hotline is reporting a lengthy and growing list of highways across the province where travel is not recommended.
When looking at the Hotline’s webpage map, the majority of the highways in Saskatchewan are coloured blue, meaning unfit for travel due to heavy, drifting and swirling snow.
It would be quicker to list the highways that are deemed safe for travel. If you drew a line across Saskatchewan horizontally at Maple Creek, everything below it is considered only partly covered or bare.
Highways 6 and 48 out of Regina are also partly covered, as are Highways 2 and 3 out Prince Albert. Tisdale is in a safe area where all highways leading out are bare, and Nipawin is surrounded by roadways deemed only partly covered.
Other than that, everywhere else has been categorized as either covered, travel not recommended or closed.
