Winter Storm hits afternoon commuter traffic

Share

The winter storm has hit Victoria commuters this afternoon, causing widespread traffic accidents and traffic jams. Police and other first responders have been kept busy and advise anyone not needing to travel to stay at home.

Vehicles are struggling to make it up hills across the city.

The District of Saanich issued a condensed list of streets that contain steep segments and which should be avoided by drivers.

The snow is expected to turn to freezing rain overnight.
