A 24-year-old woman from Canmore is dead following a single-vehicle crash near Banff.
Banff RCMP said officers responded at 5:33 a.m. Sunday, June 28, to a report of a single motor vehicle collision on Highway 1, about two kilometres west of the Banff Park gates.
Police said the woman was a passenger in the vehicle and was deceased when officers arrived.
The crash and RCMP collision reconstructionist investigation shut down one lane on Highway 1 westbound, leading to traffic being significantly backed up for hours.
