UPDATE 10:11 a.m.: The RIDOT reports the crash at Exit 10B on Rte. 95 South has been cleared.
The DOT advises drivers to remain cautious and plan extra time, as residual traffic delays linger.
Warwick, RI – Travellers and the RIDOT report traffic delays in both directions of Rte. 95 this morning as emergency crews work to clear two rollover crashes.
The RIDOT reports one overturned vehicle, with the center lane closed, and the two left lanes blocked on I-95 southbound at Exit 10B RI 117 West at about 8 a.m., on their Twitter feed.
