Below are the current road condition alerts on provincially maintained highways in Southeastern British Columbia. This area covers the Porthill / Rykerts, and Eastport / Kingsgate border crossings in Idaho, and Roosville / Grasmere in Montana. This can be a very long list in the winter months.
You should also check our page for the specific U.S. Canada border crossing you intend to use. Those pages have more detailed road condition updates, traffic cameras, border wait times, hours of operation and other information for that specific port. The following links will take you to a list of all ports bordering the Province of British Columbia including Washington State, Idaho, and Montana. If you are traveling through another state you should go to our complete list of all of the U.S. and Canadian ports and select the port you will be using.
Before heading to the border, be sure to also review our information on the going through customs, required documentation and prohibited items.
When you finish with this page, go back to the Road Conditions Menu to review other road and traffic condition sources we have collected.
