Access from both Eastbound I-70 and Westbound I-70 to Southbound I-225 has been restored following a rollover crash involving six vehicles shut down the highway Tuesday morning.
The wreck on SB I-225 before 17th Ave. blocked several lanes and slowed traffic from I-70. It also caused traffic to slow in the northbound lanes from rubbernecking, according to Denver7 Traffic Expert Jayson Luber.

The ramp from Westbound I-70 to SB I-225 stayed open, but Eastbound I-70 to SB I-225 remained closed.
Wait... now I see the ramp from WB 70 to SB 225 open but EB 70 to SB 225 is still closed. pic.twitter.com/5QLD9c2zRJ
