VALLEY, Neb. (WOWT) - A crash Thursday morning left a semi truck in a ditch near a Highway 275 off-ramp in Valley.

The crash happened at the interchange of Highway 275 and Meigs Street at about 9:30 a.m. Thursday.

On the First Alert 6 Traffic blog , Jaret Lansford warned drivers to use an alternate route, as the ramp was closed.

The ramp opened shortly before 10:30 a.m., but the semi remained in the ditch and law enforcement on the shoulder.

One week ago, there was a fatal crash involving a semi near the same location. The driver of an SUV and the dog riding with him were killed.

An initial investigation found the SUV had exited eastbound Highway 275 at the off-ramp for 252nd and Meigs streets and was hit by the semi while attempting to turn left onto Meigs Street.
