Highway 52 was closed for nearly two and half hours Wednesday afternoon following a serious collision between a semi-truck and a motorcycle.

According to Hanover Fire Chief Paul Wiebe, the collision occurred around 2:40 P.M. just east of Highway 59, and the highway was only reopened at 5. Wiebe says the motorcycle driver was transported to hospital in Winnipeg by STARS Air Ambulance. 

RCMP are investigating.
