Power lines have come down, forcing the closure of the roadway through Mt Douglas Park.
According to a media release from Saanich Police, the intersection of Ash Rd and Cordova Bay Rd is closed, preventing traffic traveling through the park. This has resulted in traffic northbound on Shelbourne being forced to divert as access through the park is closed.
Saanich Fire, BC Hydro, and Island Traffic Group are all on scene.
Saanich Police will update once the road is open.
