An early Tuesday morning crash on Northeast Lombard (U.S. 30 bypass) brought down power poles and had closed the road in both directions between Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and 11th Avenue through 6:30 a.m. The westbound lanes continue to be closed, but ODOT opened the eastbound lanes to traffic in both direction (one lane for each) at 6:30 a.m. Tuesday.

ODOT expects the westbound lanes to remain closed up to four hours as PGE repairs and replaces the poles. This will carry through the morning commute. Use Columbia Boulevard as an alternate.

UPDATE 11:45 a.m.; All lanes of Northeast Lombard are now open following power pole repairs by PGE.
