Cement Truck Rollover Moved Out of Traffic

By Jon Byman

Crews have re-opened all three lanes of I-43 northbound near Burleigh Road after a cement truck overturned earlier this afternoon.

Milwaukee County Sheriff's Department Spokeswoman Kim Brooks says a car entering at Locust cut in front of the truck.  The truck slammed on its breaks and rolled over.

The truck has spilled concrete onto the freeway, and for a while traffic was only getting by on the far left distress lane for more than an hour.
