A criminal collision investigation team is investigating a fatal crash in Surrey.
Surrey RCMP were notified of a two-vehicle collision on 56 Avenue (Highway 10) in Surrey at 9:48 a.m. on Tuesday.
Cpl. Vanessa Munn says despite lifesaving efforts, one person died at the scene.
"The Surrey RCMP Criminal Collision Investigation Team (CCIT) is currently on scene and the Integrated Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Service (ICARS) has been called out,” says Munn.
LMD-ICARS is responsible for the forensic reconstruction of collisions that result in serious injury or death between Pemberton and Boston Bar.
The investigation is in the early stages and police are now working to identify all the factors that led to the fatality.
Police are asking the public to contact them if they witnessed the collision or have dash camera footage from the area by calling 604-599-0502.
Cpl. Dave Noon with LMD-ICARS says “portions of the intersection are currently closed and will remain so for several hours.”
Traffic in the surrounding areas has been impacted and drivers should expect significant delays. A closure will remain in effect, at 56 Avenue eastbound between 176 Street to 182 Street, for an undetermined amount of time while investigators process the scene.
