The Agency of Transportation has closed one southbound lane of Interstate 89 in Colchester due to a sinkhole.
The left-hand lane is closed about half-way between exits 17 and 16, just north of the Blakey Road overpass.
With several highway construction projects underway, the Vermont State Police is reminding motorists to merge early and to drive slowly through all construction zones.
This is the second sinkhole to open in I-89 this spring. In April, a sinkhole briefly closed a lane in Bolton.
