A truck carrying a load of lumber overturned Thursday and forced the closure of the Texas 360/Six Flags Drive ramp to Interstate 30 in Arlington.

Video from NBC5 showed crews clearing the roadway of debris.

The accident was reported at 8:16 a.m., Arlington police said.

Traffic from the 360 access road was being blocked from turning to enter the I-30 ramps. Traffic was also being blocked from exiting westbound I-30 at the 360 interchange. Travelers headed eastbound on I-30 were able to exit.
