“The Serious Crash Unit and WorkSafe have been notified,” police said.
A local resident on nearby McAdams Rd told the Herald she heard a helicopter and sirens about 20 minutes ago.
She said there’s a small amount of subdivision construction happening in the area, but at the end of the street is a clubhouse where an “enormous amount” of construction work is taking place.
More to come.
