A long stretch of Highway 144 has been closed since yesterday afternoon after a propane tanker took the ditch near the Watershed.

The crash happened at 2:05 p.m. on Highway 144 about 30 kilometres south of Highway 101. As a result, the OPP closed that entire section of the road, and has kept it closed since the crash.

It remains unknown how long the highway will be closed. The latest tweet from the OPP suggests the tanker will be removed sometime this morning.

 

More to come when new information becomes available.
