PORTLAND (AP) –The Oregon Department of Transportation says one lane of traffic southbound has been opened north of Albany where crews are trying to clear wreckage from a major pileup.

State officials estimated 25 vehicles, including semitrailer trucks, crashed in clusters when snowfall moved in quickly.

The state says traffic is still backed up for a long distance, and there could be intermittent stoppages as crews move disabled vehicles.
