Highways and Public Works Yukon 511 Condition Report

Emergency road closures or advisories:

Hwy 37 Stewart Cassiar closed due to forest fires.
Motorists are reminded to reduce speed through loose gravel patches on highways throughout the Yukon. These gravels sections have reduced visibility in dust, and the loose gravel surface reduces traction at higher speeds. Check the Yukon 511 road report for current road conditions and be aware of gravel patches and road construction. Please drive safe and reduce speed through all gravel sections.
Highway 5, the Dempster Highway, is closed at km 195 due to road washouts at various locations.
