A tanker truck spilling asphalt forced the closure of a ramp at the 215 Beltway near the airport connector early Tuesday.
The truck appeared to have run over a curb and was leaking asphalt shortly after 6:30 a.m., Nevada Highway Patrol trooper Travis Smaka said. No collision was involved.
“The ramp will be closed until they can get the spill cleaned up,” Smaka said.
As of 10:20 a.m., the Regional Transportation Commission tweeted the ramp remained close for cleanup work.
