Ga. 9 in Roswell reopened Wednesday morning, hours after a tree across the roadway prompted officials to close northbound and southbound lanes.

For about two hours, the closure caused headaches for morning commuters. Shortly before 7 a.m., the roadway reopened after crews cleared the scene in the area of Warm Springs Circle.
