​Highway 21, Kincardine, closed for fourth day in a row

Highway 21, from Grand Bend to Southampton, remained closed for the fourth day in a row, Thursday (Feb. 20), as crews worked to clear heavy snow drifts, due to the blowing and drifting snow that hit Monday (Feb. 17).

This would be a record for 2025, except for that five-day Highway 21 closure at the end of January.

School buses were cancelled for Kincardine and Ripley, but the schools were open, except for Kincardine Township-Tiverton Public School.
