The roads to the south of Winnipeg are now open. St Marys Road is open for those wanting to ride to St. Adolphe and beyond. The road is in good shape but can be muddy and have gravel in some areas. Watch out for the many construction vehicles fixing flood damaged roads and homes. Traffic can be quite heavy, take care. Red River Drive is open as well, but is in poor condition in many places. Broken pavement and gravel patches are numerous. As well, there are many parked cars and trucks on the street where people are repairing their homes.
