POULSBO — Traffic flow on Highway 305 between Bainbridge Island and Poulsbo is back to normal.

According to the Washington State Department of Transportation, both lanes of the highway opened at 4:11 p.m.

Police are searching for a truck driver who may have caused the crash.

Both lanes were closed and traffic was backed up past Totten Road in Suquamish following a two-car collision on Bainbridge Island Monday afternoon. Emergency crews were able to later open one lane for alternating traffic.

The Bainbridge Island Review reported three people were injured in a two-car crash on Highway 305 at the Agate Pass Bridge shortly before 1 p.m. Monday.

The crash occurred after a 74-year-old man in a Cadillac struck a guardrail and then collided with a convertible BMW driven by another woman near the southern approach of the bridge.
