DISABLED VEHICLE ON I-40 EASTBOUND IS CAUSING SIGNIFICANT DELAYS
On December 5, 2025, at 11:30 AM CT, a disabled vehicle blocked the left lane and left shoulder of Interstate 40 Eastbound at mile marker 341.2 in Roane County, TN.
This reduced the two-lane section to one open lane, causing significant delays and backups.
The steep grades and curves in this area often contribute to such breakdowns. TDOT crews were responding, and motorists were urged to slow down and merge carefully.
