No word yet on when the highway will reopen
Fire crews are currently battling a tractor trailer fire on Highway 401 westbound, just west of County Road 32 (exit 645).
For safety reasons, westbound lanes remain closed while crews work to bring the blaze under control.
Motorists are strongly advised to avoid the area and use alternate routes.
No word yet on when the highway will reopen, and authorities continue to monitor the situation closely.
