Highway Condition Still Slick on Highway 17 east of Kenora

Make sure you take it easy when driving the next couple of days.

Roads are extremely slippery and several collisions have been reported the past 32-hours.

All roads and highways are open but extreme caution is urged.

There have been periodical delays on Highway 17 West of Dryden due to jack-knifed transports and minor collisions.

Other transports have had problems navigating hills, resulting in delays.

Dryden and Wabigoon Fire responded to a two vehicle collision this morning around 9 o'clock.
Officials say a SUV collided with a Highway Grader.

The SUV was totally destroyed and one person was transported to hospital with unknown injuries.
