PG drivers can prep for winter with Shift Into Winter Pit Stop event

Yellowhead Road and Bridge will be expanding its Shift Into Winter campaign wit a Pit Stop event in Prince George.

Those that go the the event will be able to have winter tire and wiper assessments, and get their washer fluid topped off before the winter conditions hit.

General Manager Ben Scott said the pit stop is meant to make sure drivers are ready for the season ahead.

“Sometimes there’s maybe a little bit of trying to hold off as long as you can. Winter tires are expensive and that’s something that’s understood.”

“This event isn’t an enforcement event by any means. It’s more of an educational thing, just making sure people are prepared.

“The Pit Stop event will be at Highway 97 North at the PG North Scales on Monday, 10:30 a.m. until noon.
