Update: Highway 17 reopened at English River

Last Updated on January 28, 2026 3:25 pm

Highway 17 has been reopened, following a closure in both directions earlier today between Upsala and Ignace.

The highway was reportedly closed after a car hauler fell on its side near English River, fully blocking the way.
