The crash has closed the road to traffic, and Vancouver Fire Rescue Services say the causeway will remain closed for the investigation.

The statement says the unidentified motorcyclist died at the scene despite efforts by emergency personnel, and a full investigation will take place to determine what led to the fatal crash.

TransLink confirmed on social media that the crash has disrupted a number of its bus services accessing downtown Vancouver and the North Shore, while the City of Vancouver is advising motorists that the Lions Gate Bridge is also closed.

No additional details on the crash have been released.
