A Friday afternoon car accident has damaged the Welcome to Powell River sign on Highway 101 at Rifle Range Road.
Powell River RCMP were notified of the accident at approximately 2:40 pm on Friday, April 5, by witnesses to the crash.
A southbound car driven by a 70-year-old woman left the road and while the driver did not sustain any serious injuries, the same can not be said for the sign.
Police were unable to pinpoint the cause of the crash but said that alcohol was not a factor.
