Route 422 eastbound blocked in Pennsylvania after tractor-trailer crash 01:36

LOWER PROVIDENCE TOWNSHIP, Pa. (CBS) -- A section of Route 422 has reopened after a fatal head-on tractor-trailer crash, officials say.

The closure was between the Audubon/Trooper Road and the Oaks exits.

NEXT Traffic cameras showed the tractor-trailer and another vehicle involved in the crash.

Chopper 3 flew over the crash scene and a tractor-trailer could be seen on the grass median along with several emergency vehicles.

According to Pennsylvania State Police, the crash occurred when a tractor-trailer in the westbound lanes crossed the median, hitting at least one vehicle on the eastbound side. The vehicle hit by the truck was sent down a grass embankment, and its driver was reported dead at the scene.

Another tractor-trailer incident on I-95 in Philadelphia also caused delays for drivers in the region ahead of the peak morning commute hours.
