Traffic is going to be affected on eastbound Highway 1 west of Highway 22 at the Jumping Pound overpass as Cochrane RCMP investigate an early morning collision.
“A single lane of traffic is open eastbound; however, speeds are greatly reduced while clean up takes place. Westbound traffic is fully open,” RCMP said in a news release Wednesday.
RCMP are asking motorists to avoid the area while they investigate.
“It is suggested that eastbound traffic use Highway 1A until Highway 1 returns to full capacity,” the release said.
It is not known how many vehicles are involved or if there are any injuries, however, video from the scene showed a semi-truck in the median.
Police didn’t say how long traffic would be affected.
