A multi-vehicle crash has shut down the Sea-to-Sky Highway in both directions on the way to Whistler, B.C.

Police say in a news release that the crash happened between Callaghan Valley and Brew Creek roads on Wednesday. 

Cpl. Katrina Boehmer with the Sea to Sky RCMP says there will be extensive delays until the investigation can be completed and the road is re-opened.

The department says it has asked for the help of the collision analysis and reconstruction service, and there's no estimate when the highway will open.
