The flooded road is marked and there is a detour on Highway 9.
Selkirk Mayor Larry Johansson said he will be heading to the area to check things out.
“It’s really interesting to me to see how the ice is moving,” he told 680 CJOB Thursday morning. “Yesterday … the ice really hadn’t moved too, too much during the day, so I’m hoping overnight it started to go.”
