Crash at Highway 403 and Upper Middle Road in Oakville involved 8 vehicles, say OPP

Police say eight vehicles were involved in a crash on the westbound ramp at Highway 403 and Upper Middle Road in Oakville Monday morning.

The OPP’s traffic safety division says six people were sent to hospital just after 8 a.m. but did not reveal the condition of the individuals.

In a social media post, Sgt. Kerry Schmidt said the ramp to Upper Middle has been closed but lanes to access the 403 remain open with some delays.

“A school bus involved, a commercial vacuum truck and other passenger vehicles involved … in a pretty significant crash,” Schmidt explained.

“Don’t know the cause of this collision at this time, but certainly it could have been far more serious.”
