Motorists should expect delays in the area of Exit 18 south on Interstate 89 in Georgia.  Traffic on Route 7 (Ethan Allen Highway) is reduced to one lane near the southbound off-ramp due to a vehicle crash.  No significant injuries were reported, and this is not expected to be a long-term closure, but there is a significant back-up of traffic. 

 

Questions about details of the crash should be directed to the Franklin Sheriff’s Office. 

 

Thank you for your patience and please drive safely.
