A Walmart truck struck an overpass Wednesday on the Meadowbrook State Parkway, state police say.

It happened at around 2:30 p.m. on the northbound side of the parkway near Exit M4 by Stewart Avenue.

All lanes northbound had to be closed at times during the cleanup process. Southbound traffic has also been slow due to people stopping to see what was going on.

Crews were able to get the truck off the road around two hours after the crash happened.

Police say there were no injuries considered to be life-threatening.
