All lanes of the Stevenson Expressway reopened Friday evening after a semitruck spilled hazardous chemicals near Hodgkins, according to Illinois State Police.
The situation began about 8 a.m. when the truck became “disabled” and began leaking hydrogen peroxide from its trailer while on the shoulder of Interstate 55 about a quarter-mile east of La Grange Road, according to state police.
Several fire departments and a hazmat team responded to the scene.
No injuries were reported.
