The Trans-Canada Highway will be closed between Revelstoke and Golden for about two hours on Wednesday to allow for avalanche control work.

A 35-kilometre stretch of Highway 1 will close between Woolsey Creek Bridge and the Illecillewaet Campground in Glacier National Park as crews undertake necessary avalanche control work.

The work will begin on Wednesday, March 26, at 1 p.m. and is expected to last until about 3 p.m.

There will be no detours available, and motorists are advised to watch carefully for traffic control personnel.
