Crews are working to clear a jackknifed transport trailer from the westbound lanes of Highway 407.

The trailer has slowed traffic on the 407 at Pine Valley Road, and OPP Highway Safety Division Sgt. Kerry Schmidt said all but one westbound lane has been closed.

Heavy tow trucks are on scene, and police say they are working to remove the transport trailer from a concrete guard rail.

Police are advising motorists in the area to drive with caution.

“When you see those flashing lights slow down, move over, be prepared to stop, watch out for other traffic,” Schmidt said on Twitter.
