OAKLEY, Kan. (KSNW) — The Kansas Highway Patrol and the Kansas Department of Transportation have closed the westbound lanes of Interstate 70 because of a crash near Oakley.
KDOT says the crash is in the westbound lanes in Logan County near exit 76, two miles east of Oakley.
A picture from the scene appears to show a truck in the ditch. There is no information on injuries. Earlier today, KDOT said that some stretches of I-70 “are partially covered with ice. Look out for black ice.”

Drivers can use U.S. Highway 40 as a detour. The delay could add 23 minutes to a driver’s trip.
