Highway 28 just south of Bancroft, Ont., has been closed after a major washout. Provincial police say the highway between McGillivary Road and Hwy. 118 could remain closed for several days, although the Ministry of Transportation is trying to open one lane by the end of the day, to help cottagers hoping to travel in the area.
