Alberta RCMP asked drivers to stay off the QE2 on Friday morning after poor road conditions and multiple vehicle collisions closed a portion of the highway between Olds and Didsbury.
As of 8:30 a.m., police said traffic was unable to “proceed through the area due to multiple collisions.”
While this section of the highway was closed, RCMP said poor driving conditions extended along the highway to Red Deer and south to Airdrie.
511 Alberta reported icy sections south of Bowden with northbound lanes of the QE2 closed approximately three kilometres north of Didsbury due to collisions.
RCMP said officers were at the scene of several collisions along the highway between Olds and Didsbury.
