Traffic Update: Route 9 Now Clear

An overturned tractor-trailer caused major delays this morning causing
Route 9 to close in Jefferson County, WV, near the Louduon County
line. The tractor-trailer spilled mulch and other debris over the
roadway.

In Loudoun County, members of the Louduon County Sheriff's Office
diverted Route 9 traffic onto Harper's Ferry Road for over four hours.
The crash was cleared shortly before noon and traffic is running as
normal on Route 9.

According to the West Virginia State Police the driver of the
tractor-trailer was trapped inside the cab of the truck and was
extricated by emergency personnel. He was taken to Jefferson Memorial
Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
