UPDATE: Detour around TCH closure reopens after motor-vehicle collision
The detour around the closure of the Trans-Canada Highway has since reopened.
Original Story:
Route 233 near Bloomfield is closed to travel in both directions due to a motor-vehicle collision.
As a result, it also cannot be used as a detour from the Trans-Canada Highway, which remains closed to traffic near Port Blandford.
The RCMP says drivers should expect significant delays. Please drive with extreme caution and patience and consider delaying any non-essential travel.
