A Portland man died in a crash on Interstate 295 in Scarborough that shut down traffic for hours on Friday morning.

Maine State Police said 86-year-old George Vandenburgh of Portland collided head-on with a tractor trailer in the southbound lane near Exit 4.

Vandenburgh was traveling the wrong way in his 2018 Ford Fusion, state police said. Authorities received multiple calls around 6 a.m. reporting the wrong-way driver on the turnpike in Scarborough, who then exited onto Interstate 295 and traveled through the tolls in South Portland.

The driver of the tractor trailer was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. Vandenburgh was pronounced dead at the scene.

Both southbound and northbound lanes were closed between mile markers 3 and 4 until the road reopened to traffic after 10 a.m.

Maine State Police are investigating the cause of the crash.
