A truck fire closed the southbound Interstate 25 ramp to Belleview Avenue for hours on Wednesday morning.
At one point, delays reached more than 45 minutes, and smoke from the fire could be seen for miles.
The ramp remained completely closed during the morning commute, but by 11 a.m., crews had reopened the stretch of roadway.
