Provincial police say cleanup efforts closed a busy section of Highway 401 during morning rush hour Friday after a transport truck collision spilled yogurt onto the heavily trafficked highway in Toronto’s east end.

Officers say the truck was travelling westward on Highway 401 when it hit the support posts for an electronic sign.

They say the truck’s trailer ripped open in the collision.

Police have released photos of the incident which appear to show the entire right-hand side of the trailer had been shorn off.

Officers say multiple lanes of Highway 401 were blocked while crews cleaned up the mess.
