Route map & wildfire context

The highway is the orange route focus. Official fires, recent out fires, smoke and AQHI remain independently sourced layers. FireRadar does not convert them into a travel-safety claim.

Current corridor assessment

Below, FireRadar publishes a conservative current corridor assessment using direct-official wildfire information and available Environment Canada weather context. It is not a fire-spread forecast or travel-safety score.

Data freshness

Each source stands alone

Integrated road events revalidate every 5 minutes. Camera metadata revalidates every 6 hours; images use short-lived edge caching. An unavailable source stays unavailable—not zero.

Weather warnings and wildfire impact

Environment Canada weather and FireRadar's current wildfire corridor assessment are shown separately from the transportation authority's official road state. Neither is a statement that travel is safe.

Current heuristic only. FireRadar does not predict future fire spread in this stage and deliberately caps point-based assessments below Critical. Official road travelability remains separate.
