HOOD CANAL — All lanes of the Hood Canal Bridge were closed for about an hour this afternoon after a vehicle collision just before 3 p.m., according a release from the Poulsbo Fire Department.

Crews from Poulsbo Fire Department and North Kitsap Fire & Rescue responded to the scene on the Hood Canal Bridge where a trailer rolled over and collided with a small green car.

Injuries were not reported, but traffic was backed up for hours. Officials believe the roll over was due to heavy winds.
