A collision between a TTU and a smaller SUV has blocked the highway on the east side of Jones Landing. A heavy tow will be required to remove the transport.
The electronic messaging sign at Pinewood Drive for south/eastbound travellers warns that Hwy 17 is closed at Goulais River.
Goulais River is actually about 20km south of the collision area. South/eastbound travellers can get to the Batchawana Bay Rest Stop, or at the Chippewa River Restaurant & Store (at this point you are about 5km north of the collision).
That electronic message would be valid for travellers leaving Sault Ste. Marie for points west (Wawa, White River).
