An accident Saturday morning has stopped traffic on Highway 97 heading to Lake Country.

Traffic slowed to a crawl on Highway 97 this morning as snow and ice resulted in a motor vehicle accident at the north end of the city.

Traffic was stopped before one-lane started to move after emergency crews arrived on the scene, including an ambulance as well as RCMP.

The Capital News will update the story as information becomes available.

Snow overnight, combined with temperatures hovering around the freezing mark have made conditions treacherous.
