Georgian Bluffs is advising residents of poor road conditions across the Township this morning, following ice buildup that has caused hazardous conditions on roads from Kemble Mountain to Lake Charles, Oxenden, and extending to the Big Bay area.

The Township of Georgian Bluffs has declared a significant weather event due to forecasted and/or observed weather conditions.

With melting snow and rain, we're experiencing water accumulation along our roads. Please be cautious of water next to the road, on the shoulder, and covering lanes. Hydroplaning is a possibilty, so drive slowly and with care.

Please be patient as we wait for the waters to recede. Our operations crews are actively addressing the situation where possible. Thank you for your understanding!

As temperatures rise and the snow begins to melt, Georgian Bluffs is preparing for the challenges of the spring thaw. The combination of a high snowpack and seasonal rainfall may lead to deteriorating road conditions and flooding risks, particularly in low-lying areas.
