The Trans-Canada Highway has reopened as crews battle a wildfire in B.C.’s southern Interior.

DriveBC is warning drivers to expect delays as both lanes have now reopened between Hope and Cache Creek.

The B.C. Wildfire Service says a seven-hectare blaze is burning about four kilometres south of Lytton.

Fire information officer Erin Catherall says 35 firefighters and a helicopter are on site and are making good progress.

She says the fire has been 100 per cent contained.

Traffic had been blocked in both directions earlier Thursday.
