"A dump truck crashed into a highway overpass in Vaughan Friday morning, leading to road closures and an arrest, said the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP). Officers responded to a collision in a southbound lane of Highway 400 at Langstaff Road at 2:35 a.m., said the OPP in an emailed statement. A dump truck "with its box up [had] hit the collector side portion" of Langstaff Road Bridge, they said."
"A 32-year-old from Brampton has been arrested and charged with careless driving and for having an "overheight" vehicle, said police. OPP said the collector lanes remain closed until a Ministry of Transportation bridge inspector can assess the damage."
"There is no information on when the inspector will conduct that assessment. Police said they have handed the scene over to the ministry for the investigation."
