BEAVERDELL – An overturned logging truck was snagging traffic on Highway 33 north of Beaverdell this morning.

With the truck on it's side and the load sprawling across the pavement and into the ditch, traffic was reduced to one lane according to Global Okanagan. 

Apparently the accident happened as the southbound truck was rounding a bend about 25 kilometres north of Beaverdell. 

The driver from Osoyoos was taken to Kelowna General Hospital by ambulance and was treated for minor injuries.
