Interstate 84 in eastern Oregon was closed between Exit 304 and 374 due to a semi-truck crash with a windmill tower section, necessitating a crane and detours for travelers.

Interstate 84 (I-84) in eastern Oregon was closed in both directions between Exit 304, north of Baker City, and Exit 374, west of Ontario, after a crash involving a semi-truck carrying a windmill tower section. Authorities closed the roadway to clear the massive load, with a crane needed to remove the truck and its cargo. The closure led to significant delays and detours for travelers. U.S. 30, Oregon Route 204 and Oregon Route 245 were also closed to non-local traffic in the area and were not suitable detour routes for commercial traffic.
