One lane of traffic was closed on northbound Interstate 95 in Augusta on Tuesday morning after a tractor-trailer rolled off the highway and onto its side.

The rollover occurred near the exit onto Route 27, which is also Civic Center Drive, according to a Facebook post by the Maine State Police.

The Maine Turnpike Authority is warning of traffic delays between the exit onto Western Avenue and the exit onto Route 27, and encouraging drivers to seek alternate routes.

More information about the accident was not immediately available.
