Motorists are advised that a stretch of Highway 99 is closed in both directions from Lillooet to 35 km north of Lillooet following a number of mudslides that occurred last night.

The slides were the result of an intense storm cycle that went through the area overnight.

A ministry geotechnical engineer has attended the site by helicopter and cleanup work is now underway.

There is no local detour available. The alternate route to Lillooet is via Highway 12 to Lytton and then Highway 1 to Cache Creek.  

Traffic control persons are on site to inform the public about the closure and potential alternate routes.  

Please check: www.drivebc.ca for the most up-to-date highway information.
