Ontario Provincial Police briefly  closed all lanes on Highway 401 in Cambridge on Saturday morning.

The eastbound and westbound closure was from Townline Road to Hespeler Road.

OPP closed all lanes just before 4:15 a.m. Saturday morning, and reopened them around 4:45 a.m.

It’s unclear what the closure was for.
