A tractor-trailer crash caused major delays on Highway 401 in Oshawa Tuesday morning after the vehicle struck a concrete barrier and burst into flames near Ritson Road.
Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) reported that all eastbound lanes were initially closed, but one lane reopened around 10 a.m. No injuries were reported.
Footage submitted to CTV News Toronto showed the trailer fully engulfed in flames, while post-fire images revealed extensive damage to the vehicle. The trailer was carrying aluminum beer cans at the time of the crash.
Cleanup efforts are ongoing, and the two remaining eastbound lanes remain closed as police continue to investigate the cause of the crash.
