All lanes of I-75 North in Kennesaw have reopened after a multivehicle crash blocked the interstate for more than an hour Wednesday afternoon.

The crash appeared to involve several vehicles, including at least one tractor-trailer. The wreck occurred just past the Barrett Parkway exit. Cobb police said the crash was not fatal, and that all lanes have since reopened.

Several vehicles remain on the emergency shoulder, according to the WSB 24-hour Traffic Center.

While traffic is moving again, delays are backed up to Delk Road. Drivers are urged to use Cobb Parkway or the express lanes to avoid the gridlock, if possible.
