Accident closes Hwy 7

Accident_closes_hwy7On the morning of Friday January 23, an accident closed Hwy. 7 in both directions for most of the day, causing major inconvenience to motorists. No one was injured in the incident, which occurred at 4:30 a.m. at the Salmon River bridge on Hwy 7, just west of the Arden & Henderson Road turns. Two transports, both eastbound, collided when the lead transport went out of control. Police rerouted eastbound traffic at Kaladar onto Hwy #41, and westbound vehicles at Sharbot Lake onto County Road #38, and brought in a crane to remove the two transports and debris. The highway did not reopen until late evening.
