A man in his 30’s was killed Sunday after the SUV he was driving hit the overpass supports on Stoney Trail.

EMS were called to the single-vehicle collision underneath the Nosehill Drive overpass at around 8:50 a.m. Sunday morning.

The 39-year-old was driving a 2004 Ford Explorer south on Stoney Trail when police say “the vehicle veered left onto the shoulder, rode up onto a barrier cable and struck the pillar support on the overpass.”

The driver, who was the only person in the vehicle, was pronounced dead on scene.

Police closed southbound Stoney Trail at Tuscany Boulevard for several hours while they investigated.

Speed is considered to be a factor in the collision.
