All westbound lanes of Interstate 30 were closed near I-35W in downtown Fort Worth after a wrong-way crash Monday afternoon, according to police and the Texas Department of Transportation.
Drivers were asked to seek alternate routes and expect traffic delays, TxDOT said in a social media post at 2:35 p.m. The lanes reopened about 3:40 p.m., TxDOT said in an update.
Fort Worth police officers responded to the crash shortly after 2 p.m. on I-30 westbound before the Henderson Street exit, according to the 911 call log.
