The ride on Route 9 heading for the Garden State Parkway in Middlesex County came to a crawl because of a crash on Friday morning.

An investigation of the crash involving a dump truck and a box truck blocked two lanes near Old Mil Road in Old Bridge  into the midday hours.

MyCentralJersey.com reported that one person was killed in the crash.

Delays during the morning commute stretched back to at least Manalapan.
