FHP said the incident occurred around 1 p.m. on State Road 200 and Timbercreek Boulevard when the driver, 46, lost control of his truck and swerved from the inside lane to the outside lane, causing the truck to overturn.
The truck came to a rest while blocking the westbound lane of traffic, causing all eastbound and westbound traffic to be routed through the eastbound lane.
FHP added that the driver received minor injuries as a result of the crash and that charges against him are pending.
Delays were expected as crews worked to clean up the truck’s load, and drivers were advised to use caution as they moved through the area.
The roadway was fully reopened around 4:30 p.m.
