Traffic is moving again on I-20 in DeKalb County after a box truck overturned in the middle of the interstate Tuesday afternoon.

The wreck occurred in the eastbound lanes just past the Candler Road exit about 6:15 p.m., according to the WSB 24-hour Traffic Center.

The crash caused heavy delays for motorists, but Georgia Department of Transportation crews cleared the wreck and began reopening lanes shortly after 7 p.m., according to the Traffic Center.

Some delays remain, but traffic appears to be moving again in all but one right lane.
