Access to the dam on Mactaquac Road has been blocked off as officers work to clear the scene. Police say they are working through whiteout conditions and there currently isn’t a timeline for when the section of road will reopen.
A winter storm warning has been issued by Environment Canada across the entire province, with as much as 40 centimetres of snow expected in some areas.
