HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Two overturned 18-wheelers in two separate locations caused a traffic headache for Houston drivers Tuesday.

Overturned 18-wheeler on Eastex Freeway


The first problem is on the Eastex Freeway northbound at the 610 North Loop. The exit ramp to 610 was blocked by a Hazmat spill.



The second incident is on the 610 East Loop northbound at Clinton Drive. This wreck affected three frontage road lanes.

Fertilizer spilled from the 18-wheeler onto the road, also creating a hazmat problem.
