Motorists are being advised to expect delays on the Ironworkers Memorial Bridge connecting East Vancouver and the North Shore, following a crash early Monday morning.

According to a statement issued by DriveBC shortly after 6 a.m., a collision just before the bridge’s midspan resulted in the blockage of the right lane, causing a build up of traffic for commuters.

The affected lanes were cleared before 7 a.m.
