PITTSBURGH (KDKA) – Route 65 / Ohio River Boulevard is closed in Bellevue due to a truck with a jackknife.

Both lanes between Brighton Heights Boulevard and Millerton Avenue are closed.

According to Allegheny County Dispatch, approximately 100 gallons of gas were spilled in the accident.

Crews have begun to remove sheets to vacuum up the spill along Route 65.

To avoid the closure, traffic will be diverted from McKees Rocks Bridge and Route 65 to Brighton Heights Boulevard to Termon Avenue and California Avenue.

They also recommend considering the Parkway North to Bellevue / West View as an alternative route.

The condition of the driver is currently unknown.

Lindsay Ward from KDKA is on her way to the scene and will learn more about Your Day Pittsburgh.

Comments are closed, but trackbacks and pingbacks are open.
