The Ridge Meadows RCMP is on the scene along Lougheed Highway Wednesday after a pedestrian was struck and killed in an early morning crash.
All westbound lanes are closed at Harris Road, with two eastbound lanes also blocked.

“This is currently an active and ongoing investigation and no further information is available at this time.”
Mounties are warning drivers to expect significant delays in the area as multiple investigation units work to determine the cause of the crash. There is no anticipated time for reopening.
“The Ridge Meadows RCMP is requesting your patience in your morning commute, and asking that you plan an alternative route,” Mounties said.
