A segment of the 215 Beltway was closed for more than an hour because of a crash Thursday morning in the southern Las Vegas Valley, officials said.

The eastbound lanes of the Beltway were closed over South Pecos Road, the Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada said. Traffic from St. Rose Parkway to Green Valley Parkway in the Henderson area was affected.

Traffic was diverted around the crash, causing significant backups. The scene was cleared about 7:30 a.m., the RTC said in a tweet.
