Dry, warm and windy conditions have increased the fire risk in southeastern Manitoba and have led to backcountry travel restrictions.

All motorized off-road and backcountry travel is restricted daily between the hours of noon and 7 p.m. in an area from PR 302 east to the Ontario border and from the Trans-Canada Highway south to the U.S. border.  

PR 302 runs from Richer through La Broquerie to Vita.
