Emergency crews were called to a single vehicle accident on highway 311 around 4:30 pm Thursday afternoon. 

Steinbach Fire Captain Russ Reimer says a vehicle travelling west on highway 311 took the ditch to avoid hitting a tractor pulling a manure trailer. The tractor had slowed down and was attempting to turn onto a driveway off highway 311. 

"It looks at this point like other than being shook up, injuries aren't serious, but the driver will be taken to hospital as a precautionary measure. There isn't too much damage to the car, and she did a good job managing to move her vehicle to the ditch."

The highway was down to one lane for a short time and then re-opened.
