A portion of Westside Road is going to be closed until at least next week due to a landslide, according to DriveBC.

In its latest update just after 1 p.m. on Thursday, April 3, the province's traveller information site stated Westside Road from Main Street and Denison Road will remain closed with the next update on the situation coming Monday, April 7 at 9 a.m.
