Police say a woman is in hospital in critical condition after a motorcycle crash that closed Highway 99 for two hours, Sunday night.
According to a release from the West Vancouver Police Department, the incident happened around 7 p.m. in the southbound lanes, just north of Horseshoe Bay.
“Two motorcyclists travelling together in the same lane collided, causing one of the riders to lose control and leave the roadway before coming into contact with the rock wall,” the statement read.
Paramedics performed life-sustaining measures until the woman was airlifted to hospital.
The crash brought traffic to a standstill. Police detoured traffic via Horseshoe Bay Drive while the Lower Mainland’s Integrated Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Service took over the scene.
Investigators are asking for anyone who saw the crash or who may have dashcam footage to contact West Vancouver Police Department at 604-925-7300 and quote file # 25-8927.
