There has been another collapse at a five-storey luxury condo project in Welland.
The first collapse at Upper Vista Welland happened last weekend at 350 Prince Charles Drive and forced the Ministry of Labour to shutdown construction.
The most recent collapse happened this morning at 10 a.m.
A 911 call was placed indicating that more of the structure had collapsed.
Welland Fire and Emergency Services were dispatched to the scene and reported no injuries.
However, additional components of the building on the south side endured 'structural failure', which is the same side of the building where the first collapse occurred.
“The Ministry of Labour has control of the site and has prohibited anyone from accessing the building,” said Jack Tosta, chief building official. “The ministry has jurisdiction to conduct an investigation to determine if the condition of the building is safe to allow access for further evaluation of the structural engineering components.”
Security fencing is now covering a larger portion of the property.
The trail along the canal in the areas remains closed until further notice.
