Errington motorcyclist killed in Highway #3 collision after Hope

A man originally from Vancouver Island was killed after a fatal collision on Highway #3 Monday morning. 

B.C. Highway Patrol said the crash happened just after 10:00 a.m. on August 11, involving a red Harley-Davidson motorcycle and a white Toyota minivan on Highway #3 between Sunshine Valley and the western entrance to Manning Park. 

The motorcyclist was a 44-year-old man from Errington and didn’t survive the collision. 

The highway was shut down completely to investigate and clear up the collision. 

No one has been arrested, but B.C. Highway Patrol said speed is being investigated as a factor into the collision. 

Anyone who witnessed the events leading up to the crash or has dash-cam video of either vehicle is asked to call B.C. Highway Patrol in Chilliwack.
