Emergency responders closed the southbound lanes of Interstate-5 Saturday afternoon south of Albany following a crash. By 5 p.m., vehicles were backed up and officials had diverted traffic around an about 7.75-mile closure from milepost 210, near the freeway's intersection with Highway 228. Highway officials expected the southbound lane of I-5 to remain closed for several hours, according to an Oregon Department of Transportation news release.
