Double-lane closure this afternoon on I-75 in Dayton

Prepare for backups this afternoon through downtown Dayton on Interstate 75.

I-75 southbound will have a double-lane closure until approximately 2 p.m. to fix a construction equipment breakdown on the highway that slowed morning traffic today.

Drivers should stay left.

After that, the traffic pattern should return to normal for the afternoon commute, ODOT spokeswoman Mandi Dillon said.
