ST. CLAIRSVILLE – One lane of Interstate 70 eastbound is reopened Wednesday afternoon but may close periodically until early evening due to a commercial vehicle fire.

An Ohio State Highway Patrol dispatcher confirmed that eastbound lanes will be restricted or closed for some time at about milepost 212. Traffic is being rerouted onto U.S. 40 at exit 208. Wreckers, loaders and dump trucks could be seen at the location directly north of Fox Commerce Park and businesses such as FedEx and Sew Biz.
