One person is dead after being struck by a vehicle on the Queen Elizabeth Way in Burlington Sunday night.
The Ontario Provincial Police said the collision happened just after 10 p.m. on the Toronto-bound lanes of the highway near North Shore Boulevard.
“The investigation is ongoing. I expect the highway will remain closed for several hours while the work is being done,” OPP Sgt. Kerry Schmidt said.
All Toronto-bound traffic is being diverted onto Eastport Drive.
