Just before noon on Tuesday, BFES and BPS responded to the intersection of Kirkcaldy Dr and Conservation Dr for a two-vehicle crash. Two vehicles, an SUV and sedan, collided in the intersection, effectively shutting down traffic going into or out of the Corral Centre from Kirkcaldy Dr. Thankfully, nobody was transported to hospital.  Photos by: Liam Pattison Photography.
