UPDATE -- SUNDAY JANUARY 14, 2024 - 6:00 PM
All problem areas (i.e.: hills, stop signs) on side streets are now in much better shape. Main roads are currently considered to be in good condition.
With the current temperature forecast, further slippery conditions will likely form overnight.
Please drive with increased caution as we continue to deal with the current situation.
The City of Bathurst thanks all for their understanding and collaboration.


UPDATE -- SUNDAY JANUARY 14, 2024 - 1:00 PM
Main roads are now in much better conditions, however many side streets are still very slippery.
Hills are particularly problematic at the moment, so please avoid if possible. Crews are prioritizing hills and then proceeding to further sand the rest of the roads.The City of Bathurst informs motorists of extreme slippery road conditions, the result of quick-freeze conditions overnight.

At the same time, with multiple equipment breakdowns overnight, we are presently not in a position to aggressively attack the roadways with salt.

Therefore, we advise the following: as roads are presently equivalent to skating rinks, AVOID ANY UNNECESSARY TRAVEL!

We will keep citizens and motorists informed as the situation evolves.

The City of Bathurst thanks all for their understanding and collaboration.
