A small sinkhole on Edmonton Trail has closed a section of 5 Ave. in northeast Calgary and that could cause major problems for commuters.

The hole, about the size of a maintenance hole cover, is located in the southbound lanes of the street.

One southbound lane has been closed for a few blocks to keep motorists away from the hole.

We'll have further details on the repair and the sinkhole's impact on traffic on CTV Morning Live.
