A crash in Stratford will be causing some traffic issues into the evening.

The OPP tweeted just after 3 pm that Highway 8 is closed between Road 125 and O'Loane Avenue because of a collision. Multiple vehicles are blocking the roadway, and the OPP and emergency services are on-scene.

There are no reports yet of injuries, and the re-opening time of the road is unknown.

The OPP also confirmed a multi-vehicle crash near Listowel on Highway 86 between Perth Road 131 and County Line 86. As a result, the roads and intersection are closed with OPP and EMS on-scene as well, with no timetable for the road to re-open.
