Interstate 20 in Columbia reopens after crashes block highway for hours

The incident was near the Broad River Road exit.

COLUMBIA, S.C. — A crash that blocked traffic along part of Interstate 20 in Columbia Wednesday night has now cleared, allowing traffic to resume as normal.

The collisions took place at mile marker 65, which is the Broad River Road exit. The SCDOT's Twitter site at one point said all lanes were blocked eastbound at that location.

The South Carolina Highway Patrol said the crash happened around 6 p.m. and involved multiple vehicles. Troopers haven't said yet what they think started the collision. 

The Highway Patrol said there were no serious injuries.  The roadway reopened to normal traffic flows around 8:30 p.m. 

The cause of the crash remains under investigation.
