Highway 4 expected to reopen this afternoon after overnight closure

Travel between Parksville and Port Alberni is expected to resume this afternoon after a section of Highway 4 was closed.

According to province, they closed the section near Cameron Bluffs because of strong winds on Tuesday, increasing the risk of falling rocks.

They add that they are working to repair a crane that is holding one of the net shields that prevents rocks from falling on to the road.
