New traffic signals are now active at the Barrington Street crosswalk in front of Scotia Square. Push the button, wait for the light, look both ways and cross safely. The new lights enhance pedestrian safety, improve traffic flow and help people get where they’re going.

There's a collision on Caldwell Road in Cole Harbour (at the Portland St/Cole HBR Road intersection).
It's on Caldwell - but we'll see how it'll impact the Main stretch onto Portland #HFXTraffic

Reports of at least one collision on the Magazine Hill inbound.
A listener reports it's down to One Lane inbound - and we have big back-ups forming there.
You might want to take HWY 107 to Burnside instead

New issue forming on the MacKay Bridge
A listener just reported a car with it's 4-ways on, about half-way across, HFX-Bound..
Back-ups are starting to form there - so expect volume there to grow #HFXTraffic

Reports of a collision in Burnside at Burnside Drive and Akerley.
So you might want to avoid HWY 107 to Burnside - and take the Magazine Hill instead.

We've got rain across the mainland this morning.
But along the Bay of Fundy and North Shore - we have reports of rain mixing with snow...
I don't think that's gonna accumulate - but it could make roads slippery this morning #HFXTraffic #NSTraffic
