A crash involving a tractor trailer and at least four cars blocked most eastbound lanes of the Perimeter and Jonesboro Road for more than an hour early Thursday.

In the pileup, one car hit a wall on the interstate, according to the WSB 24-hour Traffic Center.

Heavy delays stretched back to Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport in Clayton County.

But all lanes were open as of 6:50 a.m.

No other details were released.
