Eisenhower crash causing delays
One man was hospitalized after a single-vehicle crash on the Eisenhower Expressway.

CHICAGO (WLS) -- One man is in critical condition after a single-vehicle crash early Wednesday on the Eisenhower Expressway near Western Avenue, officials said.

At about 6:30 a.m., there was a one-mile back-up in the westbound lanes, and a 45-minute dapers delay in the eastbound lane.

The driver of the vehicle was exiting at Western Avenue, lost control and went over the guard rail. The vehicle landed on its side.

It's undetermined what caused the driver to lose control of the vehicle, however, the roads were slick from rainy early Wednesday.
