I-70 Reopens In Millard And Sevier Counties

I-70 has been reopened east of I-15 in central Utah. The freeway was completely closed for a time because of heavy smoke from a nearby wildfire. Conditions have now improved and so traffic is being allowed on the freeway, with some lane restructions.

Utah's Department of Transportation provided the info below:
