One-day closure planned on Highway 4 near Cameron Lake 

A section of Highway 4 near Cameron Lake will be closed for a day for repairs. 

The provincial ministry of transportation and infrastructure said the section of highway between the Port Alberni Summit and Chalet Road will be closed from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. on Feb. 25. 

“Crews are completing repairs to the shoulder and bank erosion next to the westbound lane near Cameron Lake. A full daytime closure is required to remove equipment and demobilize the slope-stabilization project in the area,” the province said in a news release. “The work must take place during the day to ensure workers have the best visibility of overhead hazards.” 

The ministry added it has coordinated with emergency services to ensure emergency transport can pass through the site during the closure.
