Accident closes I-90/39 ramp
JANESVILLE -- The Highway 14 on-ramp for eastbound Interstate 90/39 at Janesville is closed, according to a Wisconsin State Patrol news release.
A semi tractor-trailer rig tipped over Wednesday afternoon, blocking the ramp, a State Patrol spokeswoman said.
The Interstate itself remains open, the spokeswoman said.
Motorists are asked to find alternate routes.

What about the truck accident on the interstate just north of Janesville on Monday night? It looked bad. Traffic was backed up for miles. Never heard a thing about it between Janesville, Madison & Milwaukee news. Apparently nothing is reported after 5pm??

areyouevenlistening, you were looking at the right side of the page and that is why you saw snow. The images on the right are intended to give you a perspective of which way the camera is aimed. In this case neither example would have matched the current image (on the left) because the camera was swung over to the accident. If you look at the LEFT side of the page the image is updated about every minute. DOT has the ability to swing the cameras around and during the clean up of this accident they had the camera aimed at the tipped over truck.

My sister and I were sitting at Olive Garden and saw this happen, well saw the truck going up then when we looked back he was on his side. The driver is okay...not that anyone has mentioned that. Not even the article. Came back around later on and it was a load of lumber. Not sure if it was a mansur truck or not, never saw that part. Thankfully he is okay though.

The pictures are not current on the link, If you look at the pictures Zoomed in at 150% they clearly are not date stamped as the DOT site claims they only read I-39/I-90 & USH14 N

if you look right now at 3:25 PM, the DOT has their camera aimed at the semi.
