Alex Fraser Bridge re-opens in both directions
One right lane remains closed in southbound direction
The Alex Fraser Bridge has reopened in both directions, with just the right-hand southbound lane remaining closed, according to the province.
Crews previously closed the bridge in both directions for about three hours on Monday afternoon because of the increased chance that snow or ice on the bridge's cables could fall into the travelled lanes.

The bridge was also temporarily closed over the weekend after snow and ice fell from the cables.
On Dec. 5, several people reported smashed windows from falling snow and ice while driving over the Alex Fraser and Port Mann bridges.
