An early morning single car rollover will cause some grief for Calgary commuters Friday morning.
Duty Insp. Christa Ryan says it happened just after midnight at 36 Street and 39 Avenue NE.
“The vehicle took out a couple of LRT signal boxes, causing significant damage, causing the transit crossing arms to be stuck in the down position at the intersection of 44 Avenue and 39 Avenue and 36 Street NE,” she explained.
Ryan adds the driver fled the scene on foot.
There have been no reported injuries.
Calgary police say trains are still running. However, 44 Avenue NE at 36 Street NE is closed in both directions.
Police remain on scene and barricades have been put up.
“It is expected to have considerable delays for traffic this morning,” Ryan said.
