Lanes started reopening around 6:15 a.m., but delays remained through the morning commute.

The big rig was carrying soda that spilled onto the road, the WSB 24-hour Traffic Center reported. It was also causing backups on I-20′s westbound exit ramp, which slowed down traffic on both sides of the interstate.
