The Ladner Trunk overpass on Highway 99 was hit by a tractor-trailer on Wednesday morning and traffic in the area is now heavily backed up.

There was visible damage to the overpass when officers arrived on scene, which necessitated a shutdown of both southbound lanes on Highway 99 as well as the Ladner Trunk Road overpass itself, police said.

“We’re working with the BC Ministry of Transportation to ensure that the overpass is safe, and we’re asking drivers to avoid the area because delays will be significant,” Sgt. Michael McLaughlin with BC Highway Patrol.

“If you are a witness, and particularly if you have dash-camera video of the events leading up to the collision, please call police.”

The driver of the semi stopped at the scene and police are working with Commercial Vehicle Safety and Enforcement (CVSE) to determine the exact cause of the collision.
