PHOENIX – A crash jammed up traffic on Interstate 17 near downtown Phoenix early Monday, putting drivers in a long wait.

Only one lane was open on I-17, causing a backup of at least 90 minutes before 7 a.m.
The wreck was cleared around 7:20 a.m. but ADOT was still suggesting drivers take alternate routes.
