RCMP Say The 'Hillbilly Highway' Is Open

Use at your own risk---seems to be the policy for use of the so-called "Hillbilly Highway"- the ice road connecting the Kingston Peninsula and Saint John over the frozen Kennebecasis River.     

A 'road closed' sign can be seen closer to the Drury Cove side near where a truck went through the ice last night.   A man rescued his dog from the water but it otherwise ok.

Both the Provincial department of transportation and Hampton RCMP say they have nothing to do with the sign being posted adding since it's not really a road they wouldn't be doing that anyway.
