The bus driver, identified as a 55-year-old woman from the RM of Rosser, was heading north on Meridian Road when she collided with a westbound SUV driven by a 48-year-old area woman. Both drivers have been taken to hospital for treatment. The full extent of their injuries is not known at the present time.
