St. Louis, MO – A jackknifed tractor-trailer has closed the ramp from eastbound Route 370 to northbound I-270. The closure is causing delays for drivers in the area.
According to the Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT), the crash occurred Tuesday morning near Missouri Bottom Road. Traffic on the ramp is being diverted to westbound I-270 as crews work to clear the scene.
The incident has created significant congestion during peak travel hours. Authorities are urging motorists to allow extra time for their commute or consider alternate routes. The ramp will remain closed until crews safely remove the tractor-trailer and debris.
MoDOT reports no injuries related to the crash at this time. However, responders have dispatched multiple emergency vehicles to the site to manage traffic flow and assist with cleanup.
Drivers heading toward I-270 or Route 370 should monitor MoDOT updates for the latest information on reopening times. The department recommends avoiding the area and planning alternative routes to avoid further delays.
This is the latest in a string of traffic disruptions on Missouri highways this month. MoDOT reminds drivers to exercise caution, especially in wet or slick conditions that often lead to accidents like this.
