Traffic on I-85 north near Fairburn came to a halt Wednesday afternoon after a tractor-trailer collided with two other vehicles, including one passenger car.

The accident, which closed all northbound lanes of I-85 near Exit 61 at Senoia Road until approximately 3 p.m., resulted in three non-life threatening injuries and more than 100 gallons of spilled diesel fuel on the highway. All three drivers were taken to Atlanta Medical Center for treatment.
