WINNIPEG — Manitoba Transportation and Infrastructure is reopening several provincial roads damaged and closed after the Parkland region was swamped by rainfall in June.
More than 50 roads suffered washouts after 200 millimetres of rain fell in the region, resulting in restrictions for many motorists in the area, said a provincial news release Friday.
Provincial Highway 5 approximately two kilometres west of Highway 10 at Wilson River is now open.

Highway 10, just over two kilometres east from Highway 83 at Tamarack Creek, has also reopened, alongside Highway 10, more than two kilometres north of Provincial Road 271 at Pine River.
The highway is also open three kilometres west of Provincial Road 366.
Highway 20 has reopened approximately 10 kilometres north of Provincial Road 271.
Highway 77 is now open, alongside Highway 83, more than one kilometre south of Highway 10, alongside six kilometres north of Highway 57.
Highway 366, from Highway 5 to Provincial Road 485, is also open.
The province said while numerous restrictions have been lifted on roads in the area, many still have reduced speeds, temporary repairs and single-lane traffic in place.
Motorists are asked to obey all posted signage and exercise caution.
