Traffic is backed-up past the Cass-Adair County line early this (Wed.) morning due to a semi tractor-trailer rollover accident about 1.5-miles west of Adair, at around the 74.4 mile marker of Interstate 80 eastbound. The accident was reported at around 5:30-a.m. Both lanes of the interstate eastbound are completely blocked. Authorities were re-routing traffic south into Anita off I-80 at Exit 70 (Anita/Highway 148).  Traffic will then take White Pole Road (G-30) east to Exit 75 past and back onto I-80 eastbound.

The International semi was hauling paper towels and other, non-hazardous materials. The 42-year old driver from Nebraska was being checked out by medics.
