Oregon Route 18 was closed Sunday north of Dayton between Oregon Route 99W and Dayton due to an accident, according to the Oregon Department of Transportation.
The closure at milepost 52 could last several hours into the afternoon, ODOT said.
Drivers should take an alternate route, such as 99W, through McMinnville.
ODOT asked motorists in the area of the crash to be aware of heavy traffic and emergency services.
