MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- There's a full freeway closure on I-43 northbound at North Avenue.
All traffic is being diverted after a semi jack-knifed a little over an hour ago -- completely blocking all lanes.
Nobody was hurt.
McKinley, Fond Du Lac Avenue and Highland on-ramps are also closed northbound to help crews clean up the scene.
The Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office says the closure is expected to last for about another hour.
