Environment Canada is urging British Columbians to avoid non-essential travel with yet another snow storm forecast for the Lower Mainland this week.
Nearly the entire province is under a winter storm warning, and already icy road conditions left behind from previous storms could become even more dangerous.
Heavy snow and freezing rain is set to arrive Wednesday night and Thursday morning.
The latest round of intense winter weather will come as crews across the Lower Mainland are already playing catchup from a dump of snow Tuesday evening which caused icy conditions and long delays.
Boundary Road in Burnaby was significantly impacted.
Trucks struggled to navigate hills and streets that were under several centimetres of snow and slush.
Even service vehicles were no match for some of the conditions, unable to free buses that were stranded.
