If you're headed into the mountains for the weekend, prepare for a major delay.
What appears to be a serious crash has closed the TransCanada Highway, 2 kilometres west of Castle Junction in Banff National Park.
The Alberta Motor Association predicts the road could be open by 6pm, although their confidence level is low.
Traffic is being diverted to the Bow Valley Parkway, or Highway 1A.
Banff EMS, Lake Louise RCMP and fire crews, as well as park wardens are on the scene investigating.
