Semi crash closes westbound I-70
SALINE COUNTY, Kan. (KSNW) -- The Kansas Highway Patrol says westbound Interstate 70 is closed in part of Saline County due to a two-vehicle semi crash.
No information about injuries has been released yet. The crash is just west of the 244-mile marker exit, the one to Hedville and Culver.
Trooper Ben Gardner said westbound traffic will be required to take the 244 exit and will be guided north to an alternate route.
KanDrive.gov, the Kansas Department of Transportation website, shows that the westbound closure only extends for a short distance. Drivers heading west from mile marker 238, Brookville Road, should not be affected.
Gardner posted a message on social media asking for drivers to slow down and move over for first responders who are assisting those involved in the crash.
