Around 5:45am, police were called to the rollover near Iona Rd. Police say the westbound truck went out of control and went into the centre median. The driver counter steered, which caused the truck to roll, spilling its load of scrap metal.
No injuries were reported. The truck driver, a 45-year-old man from Kitchener, has been charged with careless driving contrary to the Highway Traffic Act.
The westbound lanes were closed at Iona Rd. until about 12:40pm.
