    • Driver strikes a pole in 152nd Street area of Surrey, road closures in effect

    Surrey RCMP is investigating a single vehicle collision in the area of 152nd street and 62a Avenue.

    On Wednesday  at approximately 6:30am, Police responded to a report of a single vehicle collision, into a power pole, at the intersection of 152nd street and 62a avenue.

    A vehicle was travelling north bound on 152 street when the driver lost control and struck a power pole, severely damaging it.

    The 30 year old male driver of the white SUV was transported to a local area hospital with minor injuries.

    Traffic will be shut down on the 152 street corridor, from 60th to 64th avenue, for several hours, as BC Hydro assesses the damage and mitigates the hazard of the downed pole.

    Motorists are asked to avoid the area and find another route for their morning commute.

    The exact cause of the collision is still under investigation but initial indications are that it is not criminal in nature.

    Anyone with more information, including dash cam footage around the area of 152nd street between 0620 and 0640, is asked to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502.
