CINCINNATI — The southbound lanes of I-75 have re-opened after a semi truck jack-knifed near the Norwood Lateral hours earlier.
Efforts to remove the semi truck and clean up fluids that leaked from it onto the highway took hours Thursday morning. The southbound lanes of the highway were closed for nearly 9 hours.
Cincinnati Police Department District Four officers said "a good amount of diesel is on the road from the crash."
The traffic backup caused by the crash and closure on I-75 stretched as far back as Ronald Reagan Highway.
