RCMP responded to more than 100 collisions in the last 24 hours, including two multi-vehicle crashes on Highway 2 Sunday afternoon.

Both collisions happened around 2 p.m. MT near the Acme turnoff from Highway 2. One included five vehicles, while the other had three.

No one was injured in either incident. Police had closed parts of the highway but all lanes have since been reopened.

RCMP say weather was likely a factor in both crashes.

Police are reminding drivers to slow down and be prepared for reduced visibility and slippery roads with the winter conditions.
