PRINCE GEORGE–Drivers heading southbound on the Highway 97 will want to be extra cautious to not fall victims to a giant pothole.

The hole is located on the highway just before the John Hart bridge. The recent rainfall has caused dangerous driving conditions and is to blame for helping disguise the pothole from drivers.

However, the rainy weather seems to be dissipating as we head into the long weekend. Potholes within the city should be reported to the City of Prince George, and potholes on highways can be reported to the YRB.
