A rollover crash on northbound I-5 near Mercer Street brought traffic into downtown Seattle to a screeching halt on Monday morning.

The crash caused about a five-mile backup out of Federal Way, pushing drive times almost to an hour. Delays were also felt across the West Seattle Bridge.

ALL CLEAR on NB I-5 just south of Mercer St in #Seattle. Still expect delays tho as traffic gets moving again. pic.twitter.com/iWCCFNGUjT
