Highway One reopened in both directions following diesel spill

BURNABY (NEWS1130) – Things are getting back to normal for commuters in Burnaby.

The highway was closed for a period of time between Kensington and Boundary after a tanker truck rear-ended a car and then flipped on its side, spilling diesel all over the road.

The rest of the diesel had to be drained from the truck.
