Previous collisions on the Alex Fraser Bridge
The bridge has experienced several documented collisions in 2026.
On June 17, two separate crashes affected traffic in both directions. One collision involved three cars near Cliveden Avenue and Derwent Way at the north end of the bridge, while another northbound incident at the southern end blocked two lanes. The collisions were subsequently cleared, although congestion remained.
Earlier, on April 11, a motorcycle and a semi-truck collided in the northbound lanes. Delta Police reported that the 31-year-old motorcyclist died at the scene. Police said the investigation was ongoing at the time of the report. These earlier incidents should not be mistaken for confirmation of a new crash today.
