A rollover crash involving a semi-truck closed the highway for most of the day Tuesday, but further cleanup was delayed by a rockslide that closed U.S. 40 near Steamboat Springs on Wednesday.

One person, the truck driver, was injured in the crash.

Drivers on eastbound I-70 can detour north by taking exit 87 in Rifle, heading north on Colorado 13 to Craig, taking U.S. 40 to Steamboat Springs and then Colorado 9 south to Silverthorne to return to I-70.

This is a developing story and will be updated.
