What I don't understand is why haven't the police or anyone else diverted traffic so that only one way traffic is allowed on those other two bridges for increasing evacuation volume and speed? I'm sure there's a reason, I'm just unfamiliar with the location. I don't know if that reason is good though.
I live in Florida and what you're suggesting happens all of the time during impending major hurricanes. Seems like a lost opportunity in the photo. Wonder why they didn't do that too.
Because having life-threatening wildfires wasn’t a regular occurrence in Canada until recently.
So maybe they'll learn since it seems this won't be going away soon.
Let’s hope so
