Traffic is flowing again on the Perimeter Highway after a semi-truck left the overpass and struck a train Friday afternoon.
A CN Rail spokesperson confirmed the derailment took place near the interchange of the Trans Canada Highway and Perimeter Highway on the east side of Winnipeg.
In response to the incident, the province shut down Highway 100 at Highway 1 east, which included a portion of Fermor Avenue.
According to Winnipeg police, several train cars were derailed as a result of the collision. The 56-year-old semi driver was airlifted to hospital by STARS in unstable condition, but was later stabilized with serious injuries.
It is not clear if any charges will be laid in the case.
Police are investigating. Anyone who may have witnessed the collision and/or has dash cam footage is asked to contact police or Crime Stoppers.
