LAS VEGAS (FOX5) -

An overturned semi-truck that spilled its load has blocked traffic at an Interstate 15 access road.

Nevada Highway Patrol reported the rollover on the interchange from the westbound 215 Beltway to the northbound Interstate 15 just after 9:45 a.m. Wednesday.

Authorities did not report any injuries.

The semi appeared to have been carrying lumber on its bed when the accident happened.

NHP expected clean-up to be completed by 1 p.m. but crews were still on scene of the accident around 2 p.m. cleaning up material, blocking the roadway.

NHP reported closures for the on-ramp from 215 westbound to the I-15 northbound and the I-15 northbound to Russell Road/Frank Sinatra exit.
