BC floods: Coquihalla Highway reopens to commercial traffic weeks after extreme weather disaster

Although crews are still working to repair British Columbia's Coquihalla Highway, it has now reopened to essential commercial traffic.

The province's main link between the Lower Mainland and the Interior - and the rest of the country - had been closed since suffering extensive damage from multiple slides and washouts following a powerful atmospheric river that hit B.C. in mid-November.

About 20 sites are impacted along the route with about 130 kilometres of the road needing repairs. John Hua reports on how its reopening is bringing relief to truckers and the province's strained supply chain.
