A TRUCK carrying paint has crashed, closing lanes on the Hume Highway near Yass.

The B-double was carrying 20 litre drums of water-based paint and paint thinners, when it rolled onto its side yesterday (July 20).

According to Fire and Rescue NSW, who have been leading the clean-up effort, paint spilled onto parts of the northbound lanes of the highway.

The driver of the truck suffered a broken arm.
