Richmond RCMP are asking the public to come forward with any information after a midday collision last month left a motorcyclist in critical condition. Police say the crash happened on October 23 at the intersection of No 4 Road and Odlin Road, an area that sees steady commuter and commercial traffic.

According to RCMP, an officer driving through the neighbourhood shortly after 12:00 p.m. came upon the scene involving a grey Yamaha R7 motorcycle and a black Volvo XC90. The motorcyclist was taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries and remains in critical condition. Police have not released further details about the driver of the SUV.

Investigators from the Richmond RCMP Criminal Collision Investigation Team and the Lower Mainland’s Integrated Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Service examined the site. RCMP say the review of evidence is ongoing as they work to determine what may have led to the crash.

Officers are urging anyone who was travelling through the area between 11:45 a.m. and 12:10 p.m. on the day of the incident to contact investigators, especially drivers with dash-cam footage. The file number is 2025-33945.

Environment Canada launches new polygon-based weather alert system

Environment Canada has introduced a new polygon-based alert system across Canada to provide more precise warnings about severe weather. The goal is to reduce unnecessary alerts being sent to people who are not directly in the path of a storm. Previously, when a severe storm warning was issued, alerts could be sent across an entire area, even if the storm was not expected to affect all of it. Under the new system, meteorologists will draw a specific polygon on a digital map to identify the areas facing the greatest risk. This means mobile alerts will be sent only to people located within the st
