A jackknifed tractor trailer truck has closed both westbound lanes of Interstate 84, according to the Connecticut Department of Transportation.
The interstate is closed between exits 8 and 9, and DOT officials expect to reopen lanes within two hours or less, say reports.
DOT's web site also reported a two-vehicle accident in the eastbound lane, between exits 8 and 9, at about 4 p.m.
A State Police official from Troop A in Southbury said no injuries have been reported and that the accident in the eastbound lane was "minor."
