After crash snarls traffic on Dan Ryan Expressway in Chicago, lanes reopen
CHICAGO (CBS) — A crash shut down outbound lanes on the Dan Ryan Expressway for several hours on Wednesday.
A truck flipped on its side around 11 a.m., blocking all lanes. Around 12:25 p.m., cleanup crews were using small bulldozers to remove debris from the crash. The city said lanes reopened around 1:45 p.m.
There were two tow trucks working to get into position to remove the flipped-over truck.
Cars were at a standstill, reaching back nearly 50 blocks to 47th Street, and inbound traffic was also building due to a gaper delay approaching the accident scene.
