The impact caused the overhead sign to fall on I-70 EB and block the road, Sgt. Ryan Purpura told News Center 7.
The crash caused a massive backup, and some semi-drivers were worried about getting their load to their destination.
“I’m very disappointed. I’m very panicked,” said Samuel Luelekal.
We will update this story.
