Avalanche control Feb 26-27.

A winter storm is forecast to hit Jasper and Banff National Park, bringing as much as 30cm of snow. Road closures will be required beginning at 10am on February 26 through to late afternoon on February 27 between Parker Ride and Saskatchewan Crossing. This will be to allow Parks Canada staff to safely conduct avalanche control work. Check 511.alberta.ca for updates.

Your safety is our priority.
Parks Canada only closes roads when absolutely necessary, when weather, road or avalanche conditions present a risk to human life. To learn more about how the Icefields Parkway is managed, follow this link:
