Jodi Wheatley with TxDOT reported that the victim of the fatal collision was trying to cross I-35 on foot. Their name, age, and other details have not been released. Emergency responders were called to the scene of the collision around 5:45 AM. Wheatley estimated it may take several hours for traffic congestion to be alleviated.
Alternate routes are recommended.
