TRAFFIC ALERT: Overturned tractor-trailer blocking I-85 South lanes in DeKalb

A crash is blocking several lanes of I-85 South in DeKalb County early Friday.

The crash involves an overturned tractor-trailer, the WSB 24-hour Traffic Center reports. It happened around 5:30 a.m. before Exit 91 to Clairmont Road approaching Brookhaven, according to the Georgia Department of Transportation.

Only two right lanes are getting by, but all lanes have been closed at times, including the northbound side.

“They’re gonna have to upright this tractor-trailer before they even clear and then open up the lanes,” WSB traffic reporter Mike Shields said.

Officials have not said if other vehicles are involved or if any injuries have been reported.

Commuters should use Buford Highway, I-85 Frontage Road or Ga. 400 to get around the backup that is quickly building, the Traffic Center suggests.
