The collision happened at around 7:55 a.m. on Tuesday. As of 9:30 a.m. Tuesday, police were expecting the highway closure to last until at least 2 p.m.
Toronto-bound traffic was being diverted to exit Cawthra Road and Fort Erie-bound traffic was being diverted to Dixie Road, police said.
Police told Global News the dump truck had its bin up when the truck crashed into a pedestrian bridge that was under construction.
No injuries were reported.
