Drivers in Kenora are asked to avoid the 3rd Street North area this afternoon as crews work to repair a power line and hydro pole.

A resident reported a power line being too low to the roadway to city crews this morning, after a piece of equipment fell off of the hydro pole.

Drivers throughout the region are asked to drive with caution today, after multiple accidents have been reported on Highway 17. With more flurries in the forecast, roads are expected to be slick over the next few days.
