ST. GEORGE — Motorists on Interstate 15 in Arizona are advised to avoid going through the Virgin River Gorge due to icy conditions and a rollover.
Update 10:45 p.m. Northbound lanes have opened and traffic is moving.
According to the Arizona Department of Public Safety, all northbound lanes of travel on I-15 are blocked in the area of a semitractor-trailer rollover near mile marker 23, south of the Black Rock Road Exit.
Alternate route
The Arizona Department of Transportation advises drivers to use Highway 91 as an alternate route.
