The highway was closed south of Leduc for several hours Monday morning while police investigated.

Police said officers were at the scene of a collision in the northbound lanes of the highway near Township Road 492.

Two pedestrians were walking on the highway before sunrise when they were both hit by two separate vehicles, according to police.

A woman was taken to the hospital with serious injuries and a 48-year-old man was declared dead at the scene, police said.

Just after 11 a.m., 511 Alberta said that the highway was open and that there were significant delays due to the volume of traffic.
