TORONTO — A large truck that rolled on its side and blocked the eastbound lanes of Hwy. 401 near Trafalgar Road has been cleared from the highway.

Pictures from the scene showed a tractor trailer on its side spanning the length of the eastbound lanes, with the truck’s back-end hanging over a concrete barrier.

Traffic was backed up for hours, with all eastbound traffic being directed off Hwy. 401 at Trafalgar Road.

Halton Police were asking drivers to avoid the area.
