Roads are closed around a construction site at Carling Avenue and Preston Street Wednesday afternoon as firefighters tackle a hazardous materials incident first reported as a loud noise and smoke.
Carling Avenue is closed westbound from Bronson to Sherwood and Preston Street from Pamilla Street to Prince of Wales Drive. Police are asking that people avoid the area.
An Ottawa fire spokeswoman said 911 calls came in shortly after noon reporting a fire and firefighters on the scene quickly deemed it a hazardous materials incident. She did not immediately know the substance involved but the hazmat team is on the scene and emergency responders are taking air-quality readings to ensure their own and public safety.
Witnesses tweeted that firefighters were trying to extinguish spray-foam insulation that had been applied to a foundation that’s under construction.
It’s the same construction site where Oliver Bruneau, 25, was killed by falling ice earlier this year.
