Gaping hole in the highway
The Trans-Canada Highway at the boundary between Alberta and Saskatchewan was still closed Saturday morning because of flooding, authorities said.
About five kilometres of the highway were flooded because of heavy rain earlier in the week. Detours were set up Friday and remain in place.
Drivers making their way west to Alberta are being redirected to Highway 7.
Other roads in the area were also affected by flooding, including Highway 271 between Maple Creek and Fort Walsh.
