NIPIGON – Traffic is being alternated in Nipigon after a crash involving a transport. 

Highway 11/17 is closed in both directions due to a collision east of the Nipigon River Bridge, but police have since opened one lane and are alternating traffic while the crash is cleaned up. 

An image posted by Terrace Bay Fire shows a transport on its side and what appears to be wood chips scattered on the highway. 

There is no word if there were any injuries.
