Former Bowater Forest Roads Off-Limits

Forest roads on former Bowater land will be temporarily closed due to expected weather conditions. The roads will be off limits to all motorized vehicles until further notice as of Thursday. The decision will protect the roads during wet spring conditions. Muddy roads can also trap vehicles in remote areas where cellphone service is weak and create potentially dangerous situations. A map showing all closed gates is on the Department of Natural Resources website. The former Bowater lands have 2,500 kilometres of forest roads.
