New York State Police responded to the scene of a multi-vehicle accident in the Brutus-area of the Thruway on Tuesday.
Snowfall created poor visibility and parts of the roadway were snow-covered.
A garbage hauler and several tractor-trailers were involved in the wreck.
Hefty lake effect snow created difficult conditions along the Thruway. Traffic was snarled and reduced to one lane while first responders worked the scene.
