Highway 10 was closed in both directions after two semis collided near Yorkton early Friday morning.

RCMP say one of the semis was turning left onto a gravel road when it was hit by the second semi, which was attempting to pass.

The collision occurred near some weigh scales about three kilometres south of the city around 5:30 a.m.

Both drivers were hurt but the extent of their injuries wasn’t immediately known.

Mounties said the highway was expected to be closed for several hours.
