Minot, ND – Traffic was disrupted in Minot Tuesday afternoon after a grain truck rolled over near the Broadway Bridge, spilling its load and shutting down westbound lanes of U.S. Highways 2 and 52.

According to the North Dakota Highway Patrol, the crash happened at approximately 2:54 p.m. when a 2008 Kenworth truck hauling grain tipped and spilled onto the roadway. Troopers said the westbound lanes were closed for roughly an hour as crews worked to clear the scene.

Authorities said the roadway will only be partially reopened around 5:30 p.m., with full reopening expected three to four hours later. Motorists traveling in the area should expect delays and consider alternate routes.

The patrol confirmed there were no injuries in the rollover.

Drivers are reminded to use caution and remain alert for slowed traffic and cleanup crews in the affected area until the highway is fully reopened.
