Officials said the closure was needed after a tractor-trailer crashed off the road, taking out part of the guide rail and sliding down a hillside.
No one was injured in the crash.
The road will likely not reopen until mid-morning, once crews from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation can assess the situation, officials said.
