Interstate 70 reopened after a crash closed all eastbound lanes of the road at the Interstate 71 interchange near downtown Columbus.
Just before 11 a.m., all eastbound lanes of the road were closed due to the crash, as well as the ramp from I-71 to I-70 east.
The roadway reopened by 12:20 p.m.
A live traffic map maintained by the Ohio Department of Transportation showed significant traffic in the area near the crash at the time the road was closed. Some traffic remained in the area just after the roadway reopened.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
