Police are still investigating the cause of the crash but noted it appears one vehicle failed to stop at the stop sign. Both drivers were taken to hospital as a precaution with minor injuries.
VicPD is asking the public to stay clear of the area around the intersection at Superior and Montreal streets and expects there will be some traffic delays for the next few hours while repairs are made.
