DELTA (NEWS1130) – Highway 99 between 17A and Ladner Trunk will be closed in both directions through the rush hour following a fatal crash this morning.

“That could change based on the nature of the investigation. We are going to get the highway open as soon as we can,” says Cst. Mike Moore.

He says a semi went through a median and its trailer pulling a load of gravel completely detached.

Moore says police and fire from several jurisdictions had to help out.

Traffic on both sides of the Massey Tunnel were paralysed after after the truck burst into flames this morning.

Highway 91 is the current alternate route to Highway 99.
