KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Northbound Interstate 435 at Missouri 210 Highway is now fully open after crews took hours to clear an overturned semi from the interstate on Saturday.
I-435 was closed in both directions before crews opened one lane of southbound traffic on the far right at around 12:50 p.m.
About 10 minutes later, one lane of northbound traffic was opened back up for motorists.
All northbound lanes were then closed again as crews worked to get the semi upright and off the interstate.
Crews later opened one northbound lane and another southbound lane, while continuing to work on clearing the area.
At around 6 p.m., crews fully cleared the semi from the interstate and opened all lanes of I-435 in both directions.
It is unclear what caused the accident and if there were any injuries.
This is a developing story. Check back for updates.
