Work is underway to restore access on Highway 1 through the southern Interior. Highway 1 between Chase and Sorrento at the Blind Bay Road intersection reopened on Friday, Aug 25.

Highway 1 between Boston Bar and Lytton remains closed. As the Kookipi Creek wildfire is still active, progress on highway reopening will depend on the weather and local fire activity.

Highways 3, 5 and 99 are alternative routes between the Lower Mainland and Interior.
