On February 24, 2025, at approximately 10:30 PM, an emergency call was received from the RCMP reporting a rock slide on Flood Hope Road, located between Mario’s Towing and a large truck lot in the Richmond Hill area. The rock slide caused disruption to technical lines and posed a significant safety risk to motorists.
The District of Hope responded immediately, working closely with the RCMP and local roads crew to address the situation. In accordance with safety protocols, Flood Hope Road was closed to protect the public from further danger.
