Newmarket collision downs hydro pole, snarls traffic on Bayview

Drivers should avoid Bayview Avenue north of Bondi Avenue and south of Water Street

Bayview Avenue at Pickering College remains closed for hydro workers to complete repairs following a morning collision that downed a hydro pole.

Drivers should avoid Bayview north of Bondi Avenue and south of Water Street in Newmarket.

A vehicle drove into the rear of a parked vehicle near the school entrance, which caused it to hit the hydro pole at about 9 a.m. Thursday, May 28, according to a York Regional Police officer on the scene. 

Traffic is snarled as a result of the closure, with northbound traffic being diverted to College Street, and southbound traffic detouring onto Second Street.
