Police shut down the eastbound lanes of the highway between Valley View and County Line.

IRVING, Texas — Eastbound Texas 183 near DFW Airport in Irving was expected to be shut down several hours Thursday morning due to a crash, police said.

The crash happened shortly after 5 a.m. near Valley View Lane. More information about the crash was not yet available.

Police shut down the eastbound lanes of the highway between Valley View and County Line. All traffic exiting DFW Airport was being forced to go west on 183, as officials responded to the crash.

The 183 crash wasn't the only major issue on the roads Thursday morning, as storms passed through North Texas. 

Interstate 35E was temporarily shut down in both directions in Denton between Dallas Drive and Teasley Lane, and the northbound lanes remained closed while crews responded to an overturned semi-truck.

No injuries were initially reported, though crews had to rescue a trapped driver from the truck.
