Hwy. 4 reopened around 4:50 p.m. on Monday, April 20, after a roughly five-hour closure caused by rock blasting debris.
The only road connecting the Tofino-Ucluelet region to the rest of Vancouver Island was shut down in both directions around noon.
The blasting is being done as part of the provincial and federal government’s joint $38 million Kennedy Hill Safety Improvements project.
