Truck fire closes QEW Fort Erie-bound in Hamilton

Ontario Provincial Police have closed the QEW Fort Erie bound in Hamilton because of a truck fire. 

Police say the truck fire started earlier this morning near Nikola Tesla Boulevard, which resulted in all lanes being closed while crews worked to extinguish the fire. 

As a result, Toronto-bound lanes in the area are also slowed down as drivers make their morning commute. 

OPP says the highway will remain closed until cleanup is complete.
