As many as 50 vehicles, including several tractor-trailers, were involved in a collision that has shut down Highway 401 eastbound between Ingersoll and Woodstock.
The crash happened shortly after noon Friday near the Foldens Line exit.
OPP say the highway will be closed for several hours for cleanup and investigation.

An air ambulance was initially dispatched to the scene but quickly called off. Police say injuries are believed to be minor.
Whiteouts and snow squalls were reported in the area around the time of the crash, and police say drivers not adapting to the conditions is the likely cause of the crash.
“We have people driving into the scene in highway speeds, when you can’t see anything in front of you,” OPP Sgt. Dave Rektor told CP24.
Rektor said police are working to get cars and drivers off the highway, but it may take time to fully clear the scene.

Yeah I was driving to Ottawa that day. Took me 2 hours to get from Concord to whitby, only to be redirected to the 115 which caused another hour delay. Took me 6 and a half hours to get to Ottawa.
