Motorists Reminded to Watch for Caribou on Provincial Highways

Motorists are advised to be cautious when travelling on Route 370 from Badger to Buchans, and on the Trans-Canada Highway approximately five kilometres east of Route 480 at the Burgeo Highway turn-off.

Help reduce the risk of a caribou-vehicle collision by:

• Scanning both sides of the highway.

• Paying attention to caribou warning signs on roads and highways.

• Avoiding driving at dusk and dawn when caribou are more active near roads.

• Encouraging passengers to watch for caribou.

• Reducing speeds when driving at night when caribou are more difficult to see.
