RCMP asked motorists to avoid the area of Pipeline Road and the Perimeter Highway Monday after a semi collided with a SUV.
The crash, which police said happened just after 1:45 p.m., completely sheared a hydro pole in half and took out a light standard.
Police said the passenger in the SUV was taken to hospital with what appeared to be minor injuries.
One lane of the east bound Perimeter, at Pipeline Road, was closed to traffic.
