A stolen car caught fire and led to westbound delays on I-20 Wednesday in Rockdale County.

The incident shut down all lanes on I-20 at West Avenue about 6 a.m., according to the WSB 24-hour Traffic Center.

Two left lanes have reopened, traffic reporter Mark Arum said.

Delays were 27 minutes through Conyers just before 7 a.m.

“It’s still really rough in from Rockdale County, but at least it’s not an all lanes blocked situation,” Arum said.
