The 911 Center has the HCSO to notify the public that due to two wrecks that occurred earlier this morning, I- 75 northbound at exit 11 has been temporarily closed while emergency crews continue to work both accidents.

Traffic is being rerouted to Old Lee Highway to avoid the accident scene. It is unclear at this time how long this portion of the freeway will be closed.

All media inquiries should be directed to the Tennessee Highway Patrol.
