Most northbound lanes of Highway 404 remain closed in Aurora following two early morning collisions which snarled traffic on the busy highway.
At around 6 a.m., Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) said in a post on X that the highway was closed northbound between Bloomington and Vivian roads.
Some southbound lanes of the highway were blocked at Aurora Road as well, but have since reopened.
OPP said icy road conditions were a factor in two big pileups.
Seven vehicles were involved in a collision in the northbound lanes, while nine vehicles were involved in a crash in the southbound lanes, OPP said.
Two people were transported to hospital with minor injuries, police said.
Drivers heading north are currently able to get back on the highway at Aurora Road.
