HALIFAX – Highway 103 is open again after a fatal collision between a pick-up truck and a transport truck early on Friday morning.
The two-vehicle crash happened around 6:10 a.m. on Friday between exits 6 and 5 inbound.
RCMP confirm a 35-year-old man from Martin’s River was the driver of the pick-up truck, and was pronounced dead at the scene.
The driver of the transport truck, a 44-year-old man from Eastern Passage, was not injured.
The highway was closed for nine hours on Friday as a traffic analyst conducted the investigation.
Church said it is too early to say what caused the accident.
An earlier report from RCMP said there was a passenger in the pick-up truck who wasn’t hurt in the accident. That report was incorrect and police have since said there was no passenger in the vehicles involved in the crash.
