UPDATE: The vehicle fire has now been cleared. Traffic is flowing as expected.
Previous story: The OPP are asking that you be kind and courteous as you hit the roads this evening after the total solar eclipse hit the area.
A vehicle fire reduced the 401 westbound to one lane at Glen Miller Rd in Trenton earlier this afternoon at about 4:30.
Other than that they did not report any other major disruptions with increased volume due to people travelling to see the eclipse in a prime area.
The OPP asks that you remain patient while on the roads because, “Everyone else is trying to get home too.”
