UPDATED: Highway 17 and Highway 11 reopened east of Nipigon (2 Photos)

Both stretches were closed due to poor road conditions

NIPIGON, Ont. — Highway 17 and Highway 11 east of Nipigon were reopened in the early hours of Tuesday morning after being closed because of poor road conditions.

Highway 17 was closed just before 4:00 p.m. Monday, from Nipigon to Terrace Bay, after numerous vehicles got stuck in snow about 20 kilometres east of Nipigon.

Highway 11 was closed several hours later, from Nipigon to Cochrane.

Ontario Provincial Police issue highway closure and reopening notices on their social media feeds, and also send notices to Ontario 511.
