A vehicle rollover on southbound I-5 in Seattle caused some heavy congestion during Tuesday’s morning commute.
The vehicle flipped onto its roof near the Washington State Convention Center and Union Street around 6:30 a.m., according to the Washington State Department of Transportation.
First responders were forced to close three lanes to move the vehicle over to the shoulder.
The crash caused an approximate four-mile backup, according to KIRO Radio traffic reporter Chris Sullivan.
“You don’t want any part of southbound 5 into Seattle,” he said.
