Interstate 70 between Route 519 and the Bentleyville exit will be closed for as many as 10 hours following a tractor-trailer crash Thursday afternoon.

The truck ran off I-70 and went over an embankment shortly before 2:45 p.m. The eastbound lanes are closed while crews clean up the wreckage.

The driver of a tractor-trailer was flown to a Pittsburgh hospital following the crash, which occurred near the Bentleyville exit.

No other vehicles were involved in the accident. 

State police in Washington said traffic is being re-routed.
