Due to a severe rock slide on or around February 29th a portion of the I-75 will be closed for roughly 2-3 weeks as they do road cleanup, maintenance and rock blasting according to the T-DOT website. A detoured route has been assigned to commercial motor vehicles. Southbound lanes are expected to re-open in about 14 days and 1 lane Northbound will re-open in approximately 21 days with all work tentatively scheduled to be completed by April 15th 2016.
