KENT, WA – An early-morning collision on northbound Interstate 5 at S 272nd Street blocked four lanes of traffic Friday and caused a 4-mile backup.

According to the Washington State Department of Transportation, the accident happened around 5:50 a.m. The collision initially blocked the four right lanes of the interstate. As of 6:40 a.m., the traffic had backed up four miles behind the accident.

Crews cleared the road by 7:20 a.m., but it will take some time before the traffic buildup dissipates. No injuries were reported.
