Accident

***UPDATE 6:25 a.m.*** Both I-70 ramps have re-opened after a Thursday morning accident. ***UPDATE***

The Muskingum County Emergency Management Agency says an early Thursday morning accident involving three semi-tractor trailers is going to force the closing of two I-70 ramps in Zanesville. 

Executive Director Jeff Jadwin says the 6th Street on-ramp westbound and the Maple Avenue off ramp will be closed for debris and fuel spill clean-up.  The ramps will be re-opened as soon as possible.  The interstate remains open.

The accident happened around 2:00 a.m. and was likely the result of wet pavement.  There were no injures reported.
