TDOT estimates I-75 closure could last for weeks
TDOT says drivers on I-75 should be prepared to use alternate routes for "weeks".
Officials say a "slope slide" is forcing closure in both directions of a section of Interstate 75 in Campbell County. TDOT spokesperson Mark Nagi says this is going to be a "long-term" closure. Nagi says crews will spend the weekend evaluating the slide.
