The three right lanes of northbound I-95 at the I-295 split have been reopened after an earlier crash was cleared, state police said.

The crash occurred about 12:36 p.m. on northbound I-95 at Del. 141 involving a tractor-trailer and Toyota Camry, said Sgt. Paul Shavack.

Upon impact the tractor-trailer lost a gas pipe it was hauling weighing 4,000 pounds.

A tow truck is now on the scene lifting the pipe and putting it back on the trailer, Shavack said.

No one was injured in the crash.

The three northbound lanes are expected to remain closed for about 20 minutes until the pipe is removed from the highway, Shavack said at 1:20 p.m.

A truck spill closed the two right lanes of northbound I-95 at the I-295 Wednesday afternoon.
