DALLAS — Traffic was heavy Monday morning on the northbound lanes of I-45 due to two separate accidents. The backups were affecting drivers heading toward downtown Dallas.
The accidents were both along I-45: one near Botham Jean Boulevard, the other by Pennsylvania Avenue.
WFAA traffic reporter Stacia Willson said the backup is also stretching onto the westbound lanes of 175 as drivers try to merge into I-45.
To avoid the traffic, drivers were being advised to instead take Highway 342 until the wrecks were cleared.
There was no information on if anyone was injured in the crashes. More information has not been released by police.
