Three separate crashes slowed northbound traffic on the Downtown Connector Friday between 10th Street and the Brookwood merge early Friday morning.

Trip times were 30 minutes between Langford Parkway and 17th Street just before 7:15 a.m., according to the WSB 24-hour Traffic Center.

The last of the three crash investigations was moved off to the side of the interstate just before 7 a.m.

But delays lasted until about 8:30 a.m.
