I69 north and south will be detoured at the Sebree and Robards’s exits until further notice due to an interstate shutdow. This is while crews clean up the highway after a semi crash hauling chicken parts. There were no injuries in the crash. We expect the detour to be in place until approximately 6pm and will keep you updated.
