Toronto's Don Valley Parkway (DVP) experienced significant delays on Tuesday morning following a series of crashes, including one involving a GO bus. The incidents occurred in the northbound lanes, leading to widespread traffic disruptions during the morning commute.
GO Bus Involved in Crash
Ontario Provincial Police confirmed that a GO bus was involved in a collision on the DVP. Fortunately, no passengers were on board at the time of the crash. The driver was unharmed, and the circumstances surrounding the incident are under investigation.
Multiple Other Crashes
In addition to the GO bus incident, several other collisions were reported on the same stretch of highway. Emergency crews responded to multiple scenes, causing lane closures and long delays for motorists. Drivers were advised to seek alternative routes.
Traffic Impact
The DVP saw heavy congestion throughout the morning, with traffic backed up for kilometers. Commuters faced extended travel times as crews worked to clear the wreckage. By late morning, some lanes were reopened, but residual delays persisted.
This incident highlights ongoing concerns about highway safety in the Greater Toronto Area. Authorities urge drivers to exercise caution, especially during peak travel times.
