SPANISH FORK — Two semitrucks crashed in Spanish Fork Canyon Sunday afternoon, causing a hazmat situation and closure of the highway.
"U.S. 6 is a semi rollover with minor injuries. The canyon has been shut down due to the fuel spill," said Cpl. Haley Scheer with Utah Highway Patrol.
Scheer confirmed it was a double semi crash and about 6,000 gallons of fuel spilled. The highway was closed in both directions for several hours while crews cleaned up the roadway.
"Traffic is being diverted to (U.S.) 89. Price is closed at Summit," Scheer said.
The road was reopened by 10:30 p.m. There is no information on the cause of the crash.
