If you're heading out on the road this week, there are still a number of flood-related road closures throughout the province, including the Trans-Canada Highway.

The Trans-Canada Highway between Fredericton and Moncton reopened Wednesday as floodwaters continue to recede.

MRDC reopened one lane in each direction along a nine-kilometre stretch near Jemseg — from kilometre 330 to 339 — around 12:30 p.m. on Wednesday, said Al Giberson, general manager and facility manager.

Speed is reduced to 70 km/h because there is still some water close to the road, he said.
