House fire expected to 'impact' traffic on Saskatchewan Drive: Regina Fire
Regina Fire says traffic will be “impacted” on Saskatchewan Drive Monday morning as crews battle a house fire on the 1600 block of Montreal Street.
“Morning commute traffic will be impacted on Sask. Drive. Avoid the area while crews work,” an X (formerly Twitter) post from Regina Fire said.
Around 8:20 a.m. Regina Fire published a second post on X that said regular traffic flow in the area had been restored.
According to the post, no injuries were reported.
The cause of the fire has yet to be determined.
