(Update: One northbound lane reopens)

SUNRIVER, Ore. (KTVZ) – A crash closed both northbound lanes of Highway 97 south of Sunriver late Thursday afternoon and remained closed until one lane reopened more than two hours later, officials said.

The crash occurred before 4:30 p.m. just south of the Sunriver exit at milepost 153, and ODOT's TripCheck said one northbound lane reopened shortly before 7 p.m.

"Expect some delays," the agency said in its update.

They had said earlier to expect extended delays. ODOT also said advised motorists that ramps were affected and to "prepare to slow or move over for worker safety."
