Vermont highway shut down following rock slide

A portion of a Vermont highway has been shut down following a rock slide on Tuesday.

Vermont State Police said in an email around 1:22 p.m. that they had received a report of a rock slide on Route 5 in Fairlee, just south of the Bradford town line.

“Initial reports are of a substantial amount of rock & trees in the roadway, making travel through the area difficult or impassable,” they said. “Motorists should seek alternate routes or expect delays in the area.”

Route 5 is a nearly 200-mile, mostly two-lane highway running from the Massachusetts border to Canada.

In an update shortly after 2 p.m., state police said Route 5 in Fairlee between Mountain Road and Sawyer Mountain Drive will remain closed while the Vermont Agency of Transportation assesses the stability of the roadway.

No further details were released.
