The early morning semi crash in Tacoma is clear, but it will have lasting impacts on the Wednesday morning commute.

Both directions of Interstate 5 near State Route 16 were blocked for a semi-trailer that crashed through the jersey barriers. The freeway reopened just after 7 a.m.

The truck was traveling southbound on I-5, according to Washington State Patrol.

Trooper Johnna Batiste tweeted about the collision early Wednesday morning. She said the truck spilled a large amount of fuel onto the roadway.

Vehicles traveling in the area were diverted through the collector/distributor lanes.
