Highway 17 is partially blocked eastbound at the 91 Connector, after a semitruck lost a load of lumber this morning (April 18).

The incident happened just after 8 a.m., and temporarily affected westbound traffic, as well as closing both lanes for those heading east. One lane is now open eastbound, and no lanes are affected heading west.

According to a Delta Police Department tweet, the lumber is now being cleared by hand.

Commuters are advised to take another route.
