Alex Fraser Bridge Crash Causes Significant Delays

Significant delays are currently affecting traffic on the Alex Fraser Bridge, which connects Richmond and Delta. On Tuesday morning, a semi-truck collided with the median, blocking several lanes. As a result, only one lane is open in each direction, causing severe congestion.

Impact on Surrounding Areas

The accident has also led to delays on the East-West Connector, further complicating travel in the region. In addition, a separate incident on Highway 99 is creating additional obstacles for drivers headed through the George Massey Tunnel.

Bridge and Tunnel Closures

Compounding these issues, the stal̕əw̓asəm and Pattullo bridges will remain closed until February 13. This prolonged closure is contributing to increased traffic congestion in the Lower Mainland.
