A southbound tractor trailer truck slid off interstate 91. In order to remove the truck, 191 southbound between exits 2 and 3 will be closed for several hours. Southbound traffic will be diverted off I91 at Exit 3, and the on ramps at Exit 3 in both directions will also be closed.
I will send another notice when the closures are lifted.
