MESA, AZ — The transition ramp from westbound Loop 202 Red Mountain to northbound Loop 101 in Mesa was shut down Monday morning after a rollover crash involving a dump truck.

The crash occurred around 3 a.m. when a commercial truck collided with a concrete barrier and rolled onto its side on the transition ramp.

The driver suffered non-life-threatening injuries and was taken to a hospital for treatment.

The roadway was blocked for several hours because "the dump truck caused damage to the roadway that must be repaired before the transition ramp can reopen," Arizona Department of Public Safety officials told ABC15.

The roadway reopened around 8 a.m.

The cause of the crash is under investigation and DPS says impairment has not been ruled out.
