Truck crash on icy Glenn Highway near mile 171 brings flaggers but no full closure

A truck crashed on the eastbound Glenn Highway near mile 171 on Saturday morning, according to the state's Alaska 511 traffic site. That stretch is near Tolsona Lake, about 16 miles west of Glennallen.

The road was icy, flaggers and equipment were at the scene, and the state urged drivers to use extreme caution. The highway didn't fully close.

The 511 listing didn't say which lanes were affected, whether anyone was hurt or what caused the crash.

The crash was first posted at 8:15 am. The last update, at 12:13 pm, gave a planned end time of 3:06 pm. By Sunday morning the crash had dropped off 511's list, and its incident page said it "may have recently been cleared."
