The crash happened about 6:30 a.m. when the driver of an SUV tried to get on I-225 northbound, from the Parker Road ramp, and the vehicle slammed into a jersey barrier, said Lt. Jeff Turner, an Aurora Police Department spokesman.
The force of the collision, which was in a construction zone, pushed the barrier into a traffic lane.
The driver of the SUV was taken to a local hospital with injuries, which do not appear to be life threatening, Turner said.
Traffic, which was already reduced to two lanes in the zone, is down to one lane.
