As of Thursday morning, users of the road say the restrictions have been lifted. They were still in place early Wednesday evening.

Previous: The Saskatoon Police Service says traffic restrictions are still in place in the area where a semi is on its side on the overpass at Idylwyld Drive and 51st Street.

Saskatoon Police said it was a single vehicle accident and restrictions are in place on Avenue C North from 45th Street northbound and on 51st Street with no access to the overpass, adding there is no estimated time on when the restrictions will be removed. Drivers are advised to find an alternate route and leave early to account for delays.

The Fire Department responded around 7:10 this morning (Wed). Firefighters observed the truck and double trailer unit on its side, and the load, which was lumber, had fallen on to the road. Crews dammed a diesel fluid leak and no injuries have been reported. The Saskatoon Police Service continues to investigate the accident.
