Two collisions occurred near Boeing Access Road just before 8 a.m. The first blocked the left lanes of northbound I-5 after a rollover crash. The second collision blocked the center lane of I-5 shortly after the first crash.

The two collisions caused a 5 mile backup on northbound I-5.

Earlier, emergency crews cleared the scene of a third collision on southbound I-405 at State Route 522 in Bothell. Traffic, however, remained backed up 5 miles in the wake of the collision and through the remainder of the commute.
