High winds forced a transport truck to jackknife on Highway 2 in the Tantramar Marsh area.

Sackville Deputy Fire Chief Mike Green says it happened at around 11pm Wednesday night.

He says there was a lot of blowing snow, and roads were slippery at the time.

Bad conditions meant the truck was not being removed until today.

No one was hurt in the crash.

Environment Canada is calling for wind gusts of up to 100 kilometres an hour in Tantramar Marsh area on Thursday and Friday.
