ATLANTA — Emergency responders have moved two vehicles involved in an I-20 crash off the highway, clearing up major backups in the area on Saturday.

According to the Georgia Department of Transportation, the crash happened on westbound I-20 near Boulevard on Saturday afternoon. Traffic cameras previously showed all lanes currently closed; though, authorities did appear to be opening the far left lane on occasion to allow traffic through.

According to Atlanta Police, the accident involved a sedan and a white box truck which had since been moved to the side of the road earlier but lanes remained blocked for some time after. No injuries have been reported at this point.

As of 8 p.m., motorists had been backed up to past Moreland Avenue. While GDOT still reports the accident may not be fully cleared from the roadside for some time, cameras appear to show traffic moving smoothly in the area now.
