A semi driver suffered unspecified injuries on Sunday morning when his vehicle went off a ramp leading from Highway 169 to eastbound Interstate 494, and landed onto another ramp just below, authorities said.
As a result, the ramp from Marth Road and Washington Avenue to eastbound Interstate 494 was closed for several hours Sunday, the Bloomington Fire Department said.
The ramp re-opened again by 2 p.m.
The semi driver’s injuries are not believed to be life-threatening.
