A closure through Galt in Cambridge has since been lifted after a reported collision that saw a transport truck slice the side of a business.
It was just after 8 a.m. on Thursday morning when Grand River Transit shared news of a detour on two of its routes along Beverly Street / Wellington Street in Galt, citing a closure of between Main Street and Dickson Street.
Waterloo regional police later confirmed their officers were in the area for a single-vehicle collision in the area, as a spokesperson with the service described a crash that saw a transport truck strike the side of a building.
Pictures from the scene show a commercial motor vehicle with significant damage to the trailer, appearing to have caught the side of an awning while turning out of a nearby lot onto Wellington Street.
No physical injuries have been reported as a result of the collision.
The driver of the involved transport truck has since been charged with Careless Driving.
While the investigation into the collision on Wellington Street had closed the roadway, the vehicle has since been removed and any traffic disruptions have been lifted.
