Crash at Route 45 Interchange Slows Traffic

A crash where North US 45 intersects with the Eastbound 70/Northbound 57 off-ramp by Moto Mart slowed traffic Tuesday morning.

The impact tore a portion of one of the semi tractor's quarter panels off and left a large quantity of fluid from the rig on the roadway. Southbound travel on Route 45 from near Pilot Truck Stop, south to Technology Drive was blocked for a time while crews removed the vehicle and cleaned up the fluid.

No reports of any injuries from the crash, which occurred about 10am.
