FREDERICTON - New Brunswickers will be permitted once again to enter the province's forests, following a bout of cool weather that has reduced the risk of wildfires, officials said Monday.

Starting Tuesday at 12:01 a.m., the province will lift its ban on access to Crown land, parts of which have been scorched in recent weeks by wildfires triggered by drought-like conditions and lightning.
