CALLAWAY COUNTY, Mo. (KMIZ)

The driving lane of I-70 westbound at the 137 mile marker in Callaway County reopened Saturday afternoon, according to a social media post from the Missouri State Highway Patrol.

Sgt. Kyle Green with the Missouri State Highway Patrol told ABC 17 News via email that MoDOT was repairing a pothole.

A social media post said the driving lane was back open around 12 p.m.

According to a previous social media post from the Highway Patrol's Troop F, around 10 a.m. the driving lane of I-70 was closed for an undetermined amount of time.

Traffic was backed up for several miles and the Highway Patrol asked drivers to avoid the area and use an alternate route.

Just before 11 a.m. Saturday, the MoDOT Traveler Map showed westbound I-70 reduced to one lane as cars and trucks slowly moved through.
