Both westbound lanes of Grindstone between Old 63 and Bearfield were scheduled to be closed from 9 a.m. to noon.
The crash happened on Sunday and sent two people to the hospital and left a car engulfed in flames.
Columbia police Sergeant Richard Harrell said the driver of a silver vehicle struck two pedestrians and rear-ended a truck that was helping pick up cones used for a bike race Sunday.
Authorities were marking the area with pink spray paint over the weekend, which assists them in diagramming and investigating the cause of the crash throughout the week.
