The rising waters along the St. John River have resulted in the closure of a section of the Trans-Canada Highway between Oromocto and River Glade.

The closure was announced at 7 p.m. Wednesday night.

The highway closure, from exit 3-06 in Oromocto to Exit 4-23 in River Glade will remain in effect until it is safe to re-open, perhaps for days.

The water will have to recede and the road will require an inspection before it can be re-opened.
