Interstate 81 South partially reopens after tractor-trailer crash in Roanoke County

Traffic is once again moving on Interstate 81 after a tractor-trailer crash on Thursday afternoon.

Now, rather than all lanes, just the southbound right lane and right shoulder are closed, while all northbound traffic is moving.

The crash happened at mile marker 138, about a mile north of the Salem exit for Route 619 and Route 112.

As of 2:58 p.m., traffic is backed up about 9.5 miles, according to VDOT.

Below is an approximate location of where the crash happened.
