SCARBOROUGH, Maine — Police are investigating after a single-vehicle rollover crash caused traffic to halt on Wednesday in Scarborough.
Deputies said the crash involved a propane truck that had gone off the road and rolled over near Exit 42 southbound, according to a release from the Maine Department of Public Safety.
The driver of the truck was taken to Maine Medical Center for an evaluation, the release stated.
The truck was reportedly emptied of propane and lines were purged by the Maine Department of Environmental Protection and the Scarborough Fire Department.
The Exit 42 southbound ramp was shut down to traffic and created a large backup of traffic. Two lanes were open after the evening commute, according to the release.
All lanes of traffic are expected to open soon, the release stated.
