Mounties in Alberta are asking drivers to keep an eye on the highway as poor road conditions have led to multiple crashes this weekend.
In a release late Saturday, they said that freezing rain south of Calgary led High River RCMP to respond to crashes — including jackknifed semis — on Highway 2 south of Highway 23.
Reduced visibility caused by a thick fog has also been the culprit of several incidents in central and northern Alberta.
Mounties say they have had to respond to several crashes in multiple areas north of Red Deer, and icy patches have also contributed to poor road conditions on HWY 2 between Leduc and Red Deer.
As a result, police are asking motorists to avoid travel if necessary, and to check 511 Alberta for road information.
