A crash on Route 9 in Amherst on Friday, March 24, resulted in road closure most of the day, with traffic forced to detour.

Just before 7:30 a.m., a tractor trailer truck carrying a load of new vehicles went off the road, over an embankment, and caught fire, according to the Aurora Volunteer Fire Department.  

The department also confirmed the crash was caused by icy road conditions.
