There is no traffic going further west from the junction of 17\/519. In fact there is a lineup of 2.5kms of traffic (cars, motorcycles, campers, transports) all patiently waiting. There is no OPP at the barricade and traffic keeps accumulating. As I type parked on the shoulder 6 more transports have arrived and 3 pickups. Anyone trying to get into Dubreuilville will have to drive at least 2.5kms in the opposing lane to get to the turnoff.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>7:28 p.m.<\/strong> UPDATE -a wawa-news reader has texted wawa-news that one lane is open, eastbound traffic is flowing. The trailer has been moved enough that traffic can go by in the one lane, alternating directions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>7:11 p.m.<\/strong> UPDATE &#8211; the highway remains closed at this time. Efforts are being made to move the trailer so that a southbound lane can be opened. Northbound traffic is being stopped at the Dubreuilville turnoff preventing travel north.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5:11 pm<\/strong> &#8211; tractor trailer across road and into rock cut.
