Eastbound Lanes of Highway 1 Shutdown Near Virden

March 2, 2012 11:03 AM | News


The eastbound lanes of the Trans-Canada Highway — about 2.5 kilometres east of Virden, Manitoba — are shutdown after a semi-trailer truck rolled Friday morning.

Traffic is currently being re-routed to the westbound lanes while crews clear the scene, which is expected to take several hours. Traffic is currently blocked from Highway 257 to Highway 254.

No other vehicles were involved in the collision and no one was injured.

RCMP are advising motorists to use caution on the roads after police responded to several minor collisions and vehicles in the ditch.
