Good morning to you. We have some updates here to lane blockage along 275 and i4. This is due to an earlier motorcycle involved crash that had all the drivers on i4 westbound unable to get on to 275 south. Forced to take detour northbound. What we are seeing even though we have big delays. Drivers now from i4 west can get to 275. So those lanes are open. Just moments ago we saw, we had skyfox monitoring downtown exits. Those are now open. So we are going some improvements to travel times. But it will take awhile. Because road was shut down for hours. You can see this is earlier video of the area. And what we know is that it does involve a motorcyclist that apparently was involved in this wreck. Slammed into the barrier and unfortunately passed away. We have the lanes open. This is earlier aerial video when downtown exit was closed. And 275 south was open. And delays are still bad. So drivers are still urged to either plan extra time or use some work around. I am going to just clarify.
One or two very isolated showers moving across the state. Nothing worse than what weve dealing with over the past several days or so. I think the rest of the weekend is going to follow suit as well.

Where we actually had all of those lanes closed heading on to 275 south for a few hours crash. This motorcyclist apparently hit a guardrail and was ejected. You could see the back up that is ensued afterwards. The good news is were completely normal at this point as far as the traffic and congestion that were seeing. We have a live look for you here westbound i4 in area of nebraska heading all into lanes of 275 where everything seems to be trucking along quite smoothly. And our travel times look quite nice. Ideal really. 275. All right. Vanessa, thank you. A horrifying discovery early this morning at an apartment complex
