Crash involving dump truck temporarily closes portion of Loop 202 in Chandler

CHANDLER, AZ (3TV/CBS 5) - The eastbound lanes of Loop 202 near Price Road are back open after a dump truck hauling hot asphalt blew out a tire, causing a crash in Chandler.

The crash happened around noon between Price and Dobson Road when the truck’s left front tire blew out, according to the Arizona Department of Public Safety. That caused the truck to veer left, hit the concrete barrier wall, and roll over. No injuries were reported.

DPS says the eastbound lanes of Loop 202 were closed for several hours while crews cleared tar and asphalt from the road. The lanes reopened just after 4:30 p.m. The westbound lanes of the 202 were not affected.
