Christmas Day crash leaves one dead in Surrey

Drivers asked to avoid the intersection of Highway 15 and Highway 10 in Cloverdale

A woman has died after a two-vehicle crash at the intersection of Highway 10 and Highway 15 in the Surrey neighbourhood of Cloverdale.

Surrey Police Service spokesperson Staff Sgt. Lindsey Houghton said the accident happened at 11:15 a.m. on Wednesday.

“A passenger in the vehicle that was struck, an adult woman, passed away despite life-saving measures at the scene,” Houghton said.

“B.C. RCMP Surrey police operations support unit officers responded and both the criminal collision Investigation team and integrated collision analysis and reconstruction service have both been called in to assist. The investigation is in its early stages and is continuing to determine the cause of the collision.

“The driver of the vehicle that struck the other vehicle remained at the scene of the collision and is co-operating with police.”

The B.C. RCMP Surrey police operations support unit is the remnant of the Surrey RCMP, which has been replaced by the SPS but is still providing support.

There are several road closures near the intersection of Highways 15 and 10, with Highway 10 being completely blocked for eastbound traffic. Road closures and traffic diversions are expected to last until the evening.

If you witnessed the accident or have any information, including dashcam footage, please call Surrey Police Service at 604-599-0502.
