A crash blocking the left lane of Highway 91 westbound has since been cleared, but traffic impacts remain for anyone heading that direction over the Alex Fraser Bridge.

The three-car crash happened just past the Westminster Highway exit. While the vehicles have been removed, traffic remains heavy, backed up to 72nd Avenue as of 7 a.m.

You can take the Massey Tunnel as an alternate route.
