Police have closed this section of Algonquin this morning to investigate a serious motor vehicle collision

Commuters will have to plan an alternate route to their destinations as a section of one of North Bay's busiest roads is completely closed this morning, according to the North Bay Police Service.

A motor vehicle accident happened around 6:30 a.m.

NBPS is asking motorists to avoid Algonquin Avenue from Norwood Avenue to the Highway 11/17 bypass. 

Police have closed this section of the roadway this morning to investigate a serious motor vehicle collision at 1119 Algonquin Ave and the reopening time is unknown.

The investigation is a joint effort between City and OPP. A drone has been used to take photos.

A witness says eight police cruisers were on-scene earlier this morning.
