The westbound lanes of I-80 reopened around 10:30 a.m. after a semitruck rollover injuring two people around 5 a.m.
The Utah Department of Transportation said hazmat crews were called to the scene near mile post 146 because oil the trailer was carrying spilled in the accident.

Utah Highway Patrol Lt. Cameron Roden said the semitruck swerved to avoid a vehicle that hit an elk, lost control and rolled.
The tractor trailer hit another other car in the crash, critically injuring the driver.
