Just heard through the grapevine that the FTR is closed around ram falls due to flooding? Anyone able to confirm this or shoot it in the foot?

Heard on the radio the north bridge is damaged with the flooding

Highway 734 closes until further notice west of Rocky Mountain House

Rocky Mountain House... Motorists are advised that Highway 734 west of Rocky Mountain House will be closed until further notice.

The closure affects the gravel highway between its junctions with Highways 11 and 752. Heavy rain has damaged the highway. The Elks Creek Bridge and Radiant Creek Bridge approaches have been washed out and the North Ram Bridge is impassable.
Repairs will be made once water levels recede. A further advisory will be issued when the highway re-opens.

Bear in mind the north fork rd also known as the meadows road also has bridges out on rough creek again.
