Semi crashes, hangs off ramp from US 2 to I-5 in Everett [View all]



EVERETT — A semi truck overturned Thursday morning on a ramp to I-5 near Everett Avenue, spilling debris into the street and causing an “extended closure.”

State Department of Transportation traffic cameras showed the semi’s trailer over the edge of the ramp from westbound U.S. 2, following the crash around 10:50 a.m.

The crash was reportedly blocking traffic heading north onto I-5. The truck’s load — which appeared to be garbage — spilled onto Everett Avenue below. The arterial street through the city was closed for about three blocks, according to Everett police.

“Expect this to last a few hours,” police tweeted.
