Snowstorm disrupts travel across Nova Scotia
Roads are snow covered across much of the province
It doesn't matter how you're planning on travelling in Nova Scotia today — you're more than likely going to run into some sort of delay.
Heavy snowfall is causing dangerous road conditions. At one point, the Nova Scotia Department of Transportation was forced to partially shut down the Trans-Canada Highway, Highway 104, connecting Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. The highway has since reopened.
Heavy snow has clogged roads, while high winds have kept Marine Atlantic ferries and Bay Ferries in port.
A handful of flights are cancelled at the Halifax Stanfield International Airport, while others are delayed.
Maritime Bus also cancelled a dozen or so routes Wednesday because of snow. You can see the full list of cancellations here.
Most of the province's roads are snow covered and the Nova Scotia Department of Transportation says most highways are passable with caution. Motorists are being advised to slow down if they must travel.
In Halifax there are numerous areas where snow clearing efforts have left large ridges of snow across intersections.
Halifax Transit is operating on its snow plan today and buses are being rerouted around trouble sections on the road.
Halifax Harbour Bridges reports that both the Macdonald and MacKay bridges are open but snow covered.
All Marine Atlantic ferries are tied up today and all passengers that were supposed to cross today have now been rescheduled for tomorrow.
Winds in the Cabot Strait are expected to gust to 35 knots or 64 km/h this morning and waves up to eight metres high are expected by this afternoon.
The latest information on any cancellations can be found on our Storm Centre page.
