RCMP are investigating a semi-truck rollover that closed northbound traffic on Highway 19 on Saturday morning.

The vehicle was heading south on Highway 19, crossed the median and rolled over on the northbound lanes, completing blocking the roadway about two kilometres south of Cook Creek Road.

Northbound lanes were closed for about five hours and traffic was detoured through the oceanside route while the truck and trailer unit were removed.

No one was injured in the crash.
