Two people were taken to hospital yesterday after a driver took a wrong turn on the QEW, sending their vehicle plunging into a large construction hole.

Members of the OPP’s Highway Safety Division tweeted about the incident last night shortly before 6 p.m.

A white sedan drove into a large open pit near Mississauga Rd., sending two occupants of the vehicle to hospital with minor injures.

The area is currently under construction as part of a QEW/Credit River Improvements project.
