It appears that a white Honda Civic was travelling westbound on Grant when it collided with the back of a dump truck.

The dump truck was part of street cleaning efforts in the area.

The adult male driver of the Honda and a female passenger were transported to hospital. One was in critical and one in unstable. Both have been upgraded to stable condition since then.

The driver of the dump truck was not hurt.

Westbound Grant and Southbound Elmhurst were closed for nearly 12 hours while police investigated. Both roadways were reopened shortly before noon.

The Winnipeg Traffic Management Centre is asking everyone to avoid the area.
