One person is dead after a single-vehicle crash in Delta, B.C. that caused an overhead highway sign to fall onto the road.
It happened at approximately 2:00 p.m. PT on Nordel Way, just west of 84th Avenue. One car in a westbound lane went off the highway and hit the structure holding up an overhead highway sign, causing part of it to fall.
