Quesnel collision sends one to hospital with serious injuries

A collision on the Moffat bridge in Quesnel involving a motorcycle and SUV has sent one person to the hospital.

The driver of the bike was transported by EMS to the G.R. Baker Memorial Hosptial in Quesnel with serious injuries.

“A motorcycle was traveling in the slow lane approaching the Moffat bridge and passed a dump truck that was traveling east-bound on Anderson drive,” said Staff Sergent Richard Weseen. “The motorcycle driver lost control of his bike and collided with a westbound SUV on the bridge deck.”

The Moffat bridge was shut down for approximately one hour before being opened up after crews cleared debris and the vehicles from the scene.

According to the police, the driver of the SUV was not injured.

Speed is believed to be a factor in the investigation.
