A transport truck rolled onto its side early Saturday morning on January 2, 2021.

At approximately 4 a.m. the transport was heading westbound on Highway 401 when it went into the ditch just east of Danforth Road in Alnwick/Haldimand Township.

Weather at the time was snowing and icy conditions.

The driver wasn’t injured and it was decided to leave the transport in the ditch until the weather cleared.
