Two separate traffic incidents have caused delays and closures on Interstate 75 in Loudon County.

On the northbound side near mile marker 82.4, a multi-vehicle crash reported at 2:04 PM (ET) has forced a complete closure of all northbound lanes.

Just a mile away on the southbound side near mile marker 81.4, an earlier single-vehicle crash reported at 1:55 PM (ET) has blocked the left shoulder and the left lane of the two-lane highway, restricting traffic flow.

Drivers in both directions should expect significant delays and consider alternate routes.
