Truck fire slows Highway 1 in Burnaby

A truck fire westbound on Highway 1 in Burnaby Monday is snarling the morning commute.

While the two right lanes have reopened just west of the Gaglardi Way exit, traffic is still backing up from the Port Mann Bridge.

Take the Patullo Bridge, Lougheed Highway, or Hastings Street as an alternate route.
