Southbound lanes of Hwy. 400 reopened after hours-long shut down following crash

A two-vehicle collision completely shut down a portion of Hwy. 400 Friday.

According to police, a transport truck and pickup truck collided shortly after 7 p.m. in the southbound lanes near King Rd. in the Aurora area.

While police confirm no injuries have been reported, there was a fluid leak from the tractor trailer, prompting all lanes to be shutdown in that area for a cleanup. Motorists are being advised to get off the highway at Lloydtown-Aurora Rd. 

The Ministry of Environment has been advised. 

After several hours the highway was full reopened shortly after 10 p.m.
