The U.S. 169 roundabout south of Garnett was closed for nearly 12 hours starting Monday afternoon after a highway transport carrying a load of ethanol crashed there.
According to the Kansas Highway Patrol, Rodney Honn, 46, Kincaid, crashed while maneuvering his truck and a 53-foot trailer through the round-about, where U.S. 169 and U.S. 59 intersect.
Honn was uninjured, but ethanol began leaking from the trailer.
The highway was closed and traffic rerouted around the accident scene from about 2 p.m. Monday until 1:18 this morning, according to KHP.
