UPDATE:
The Johnston Bridge Loop is closed due to flooding. Residents are advised to take alternative routes.
Original post:
The Quesnel River is creeping up its banks this morning and a large puddle is forming on its north side where the Johnston Bridge Loop is at its closest, blocking off most of a lane.
As of 10:40 a.m., drivers were still able to get by without any issues but the puddle is getting to be the size of a small pond, so it might meet the river itself at some point today.
Commuters are advised to proceed with caution as the day progresses.
