Allegan County, MI – M-40 between Hamilton and 141st Avenue has officially reopened after being closed earlier Tuesday morning due to a semi-truck crash, according to the Allegan County Sheriff’s Office.
Deputies reported the closure around 7 a.m. as tow crews worked to recover a semi that had slid off the snow-covered roadway. The department estimated the closure would last approximately 30 minutes while the truck was lifted back onto its wheels.
According to authorities, slick and snow-packed conditions likely contributed to the incident. No injuries have been reported at this time. The sheriff’s office confirmed just before 8 a.m. that M-40 was back open to traffic.
Drivers in the area were urged to use caution, as winter weather continues to create hazardous driving conditions across Allegan County and surrounding areas. Michigan State Police and local road crews are reminding motorists to slow down and maintain extra following distance when snow and ice are present.
Motorists traveling between Hamilton and Allegan should expect residual delays while crews clear remaining snow and sand the roadway.
