At around 6 a.m., London police were called about a single-vehicle collision at the intersection of Oxford Street West and Riverbend Road. Several hydro poles were downed and strewn across the road following the crash, which prompted crews to close Oxford Street between Kains Road and Westdel Bourne Road.
