A multi-vehicle crash shut down Interstate 95 at Quantico in Virginia and caused major traffic delays early Wednesday.

Lanes were closed on northbound I-95 at mile marker 146 before Exit 148 in Stafford County. Traffic was backed up for nine miles as of about 6:50 a.m., according to the Virginia Department of Transportation. Drivers were told to expect major travel delays through the morning rush.

“At this point this morning, your alternate is going to be Route 1 and we are hoping they're getting a tow out here soon sounds like a tractor trailer off of the road,” News4 Traffic Reporter Melissa Mollet said.

All lanes were reopened by about 7:30 a.m. Crews cleaned debris and a tow truck was at the scene to help clear vehicles.

The Metropolitan Area Transportation Operations Coordination Program posted on X that the crash involved a tractor trailer and an injury.

Additional details about the crash were not immediately released.
