Collision Closes Trans-Canada Highway for Several Hours

On May 1st, 2023 at 14:03 the Richer Fire Department responded to a motorized vehicle collision on Highway 1 at road 42E. Upon arrival, it was determined that there were two semis with trailers blocking the eastbound lane, both overturned and twisted, with both drivers needing extrication. With the help of the Ste Anne Fire Department and Dr. Hook Towing, RFD are very proud to say that after 2.5 hours of a VERY meticulous extrication process, both drivers were taken out of the wreckage and sent off with EMS/STARS. The drivers are in stable condition.
