The westbound lanes on Highway 401 have reopened through Drumbo – following a crash just before Oxford Road 29 that left many drivers stranded
The left lane reopened briefly around 10 a.m., though reports from both the MTO and West Region OPP showed that area fully closed to westbound lanes of traffic shortly afterward – and for several hours.
That closure extended from Cedar Creek Road to Oxford Road 29, with westbound 401 traffic being rerouted off the highway at Cedar Creek.
As of 5 p.m. on Friday, the westbound 401 has reopened to all lanes of traffic.
Ornge Air Ambulance confirms they responded to the multi-vehicle crash in the area on Friday morning.
One male patient was transported to London with critical injuries.
His age has not been released at this time.
Cleared: Collision on #HWY401 Westbound between Cedar Creek Road / Waterloo Rd 97, KITCHENER and Oxford Rd 29 / Drumbo Rd, DRUMBO. All lanes closed. #Closure #ONHwys
