Forestry company asks public to be mindful on FSRs
Canfor has issued a public notice asking Forest Service Road (FSR) users to be vigilant to industrial traffic.
Canfor’s public advisory reads: “Please be advised that there will be increased industrial road traffic on forest roads in the East Kootenay where harvesting and road building operations are being conducted. If you are travelling on any forest road, you could encounter traffic at anytime of the day including weekends. Travellers are reminded to drive with caution.
“Forest roads are radio assisted not radio controlled so please drive accordingly. The public should drive defensively and expect the unexpected. Drivers should follow the Three Cs when driving on forest roads. Use courtesy, common sense and concentration.”
It’s good advice!
