The right lane was closed as crews cleaned up the crash site. At 9:45 a.m. The Kansas Department of Transportation used Twitter to tell motorists the westbound off-ramp was closed for clean up. At 11:45 a.m. the exit ramp was opened. According to Topeka KDOT, the right lane of the westbound I-70 near the MacVicar exit will be closed for two to three hours for sign removal.
Shawnee County Dispatch called the crash a mess because it is a package truck and the packages were thrown from the tandem-tractor trailer semi-truck.
No injuries have been reported.
