I-70 eastbound reopened after multi-vehicle crash causes closure

A multi-vehicle crash just outside the Eisenhower/Johnson tunnels caused officials to temporarily close eastbound traffic along I-70 late Friday morning.

A Colorado State Patrol spokesperson said 10 or more vehicles were involved in the crash, which happened around 10:43 a.m. just east of the Eisenhower Tunnel. Information on possible injuries has not yet been released.

Several tow trucks moved vehicles from the roadway. Both lanes of traffic reopened at noon.  

CDOT temporarily closed I-70 East between Exit 205: US 6; CO 9; Silverthorne and Exit 216; Loveland Pass while crews work the scene.
