Serious Collision Closes Hwy 17 South of Wawa

Highway 17 is closed from Wawa south to Sault Ste. Marie, after a “serious collision” in the Agawa Bay area.

Superior East Ontario Provincial Police say the collision is blocking the highway, preventing traffic from travelling through the area - an ambulance and Wawa Fire Department trucks have been seen heading in that direction.

There’s no estimated time for reopening the highway, though Superior East OPP do expect it will take several hours.
