Travel not recommended advisories remain on a number of Southwest highways as ice covered and snow packed driving lanes are continuing to create problems for motorists.

Southwest roadways deteriorated on Sunday evening after wet snow fell during the day and freezing temperatures at night created icy conditions in much of the Southwest.

The westbound lane of the TransCanada Highway between Morse and Herbert had been closed for a four hour period on Sunday night as a jack knifed tractor trailer unit caused a long delay for evening motorists.
