NEW YORK (MYFOXNY) -

A tractor trailer overturned in Ridgefield Park, New Jersey Friday morning spilling lumber onto eastbound Route 80 at the ramp to I-95. 

Route 80 and the ramp remained closed hours later.   All traffic continues to be detoured north on I-95. 

The truck was still on its side hours later.

Crews have cleared most of the wood planks that littered the area, but traffic continues to be detoured north on I-95. 

Drivers are advised to use the express lanes through the area.

This is a developing story.
