A 45-year-old man driving the tractor-trailer went off the right side of the road and hit a guardrail and signpost, according to the highway patrol.
“The impact caused the overhead sign to fall onto the eastbound lanes of I-70 and block the roadway,” said OHSP Sgt. Ryan Purpura.
The driver was not injured, and no other vehicles were involved in the crash.
A detour was created following the crash and vehicles on I-70 East were diverted onto state Route 48. The highway fully reopened just before 6 a.m. Friday, Purpura said.
The Clayton Fire Department, Englewood Police Department and Ohio Department of Transportation assisted at the scene.
