SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) — Several vehicles were involved in a car accident on I-80 eastbound near milepost 133, leading to temporary lane closures.

According to Utah Department of Transportation, a multi-vehicle car crash led to lane closures at milepost 133 in Parley’s Canyon. Two lanes were closed, and multiple emergency vehicles responded to the scene.

The incident involved five vehicles, according to Utah Highway Patrol. No serious injuries were reported.
