Traffic from Richmond to Delta was snarled on Tuesday after a truck hit the 17A overpass.

Southbound traffic on Highway 99 has re-opened following a crash Tuesday at the 17A overpass.

DriveBC is reporting, however, the southbound lane on the 17A overpass remains closed, but northbound is open.

A truck hit the 17A overpass in Delta, just south of the George Massey Tunnel just before noon on Tuesday, closing southbound lanes completely.

The closure caused major gridlock during the afternoon commute for drivers leaving Richmond on Tuesday afternoon, with all routes heading south slowed to a crawl.
