A tractor-trailer spilled 1,000 pounds of frozen hotdogs during a multi-vehicle crash on Interstate 83 in York County Friday morning, Aug. 1, shutting down traffic in both directions, authorities said.
The crash happened just before 9:30 a.m. near mile marker 6.6 in Shrewsbury, PennDOT spokesperson Fritzi Schreffler said.
No injuries have been reported, and the number of vehicles involved was not released. A tractor-trailer was breached during the crash, scattering boxes of frozen hotdogs across the roadway, according to PennDOT.
By just after noon, Shrewsbury Volunteer Fire Company reported that I-83 had reopened at Exit 4, with some lane restrictions still in place near mile marker 6.6.
Crews are continuing to clear the spilled cargo and assess damage to at least 12 barriers, officials said. PennDOT anticipates full reopening later this afternoon.
