UPDATE 6:30 PM M: The crash of the Glacier National Park has been cleared, and the Trans Canada Highway is again open,
Original history:
An accident involving three transports has closed the Trans-Canada Highway between Revelstoke and Golden.
It happened on a two-lane, subdivided section of the freeway in a tunnel within the Glacier National Park.
The incident happened around at. on Wednesday.
The highway is closed between Victoria Road West at Revelstoke and Golden View Road in Golden – a stretch of approximately 148 kilometers, so fewer people are stuck on the main road in the cold.
There were two crashes east and west of Revelstoke Tuesday, which closed Highway 1 and stopped traffic for several hours.
It is not known if anyone was injured during Wednesday's crash.
A detour around the scene of the accident is not available.
The crash is expected to be cleared and the motorway will be reopened around 7:30, according to Drive BC.
