Cement mixer overturns on Interstate 70, closing all westbound lanes at 32nd Avenue

A cement mixer blew a tire and overturned on Interstate 70 on Monday in the Wheat Ridge area, causing a diesel fuel spill.

All westbound lanes were closed at 32nd Avenue in the afternoon.

The driver is okay but the cleanup process was expected to take a while. It was hindered by the fact that a cable the towing crew was using snapped.
