The threat of flooding has closed another major section of Highway 1, this time between Abbotsford and Chilliwack.
The closure came as floodwaters poured across the Canada-U-S border and after the region received more than 100 millimetres of rain over the weekend.
The Transportation Ministry says Highway 1 also remains closed between just east of Highway 9 and Hope, through the Popkum-Bridal Falls area.
Highway 7 remains open between Mission and Hope, however the ministry reminds travelers that restrictions remain in place on that stretch of highway.
