A tractor trailer overturned this morning, and is blocking both lanes of US 641 in Lyon County between Eddyville and Fredonia, according to KYTC.
The crash site is near the entrance to the West Kentucky Correctional Center. The box truck is loaded with metal and may have to be offloaded to allow the truck to be removed.
Detour options include using KY 295 and KY 70 through the Dycusburg area. Another option is via I-69 to Princeton, then take KY 91 to return to US 641 at Fredonia.
Estimated duration is 3 to 4 hours (closed until possibly as late as 12 pm today).
