Slippery roads, ice cause delays on I-40, I-240

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) - Wednesday night, two areas of I-40 are at a standstill, and a portion of I-240 is completely blocked, due to ice on the roads causing slippery conditions.

All three incidents took place within an hour just past 9 p.m., according to TDOT.

Two cars are disabled on I-40.

One lane is open on I-40 eastbound at White Station Road. On the flyover, one lane is open at I-40 westbound at I-240.

All lanes are blocked on I-240 northbound at South Parkway due to a multi-vehicle crash. Police say there is a sheet of ice on the interstate and lanes will be closed for an unspecified time.

Southbound lanes remain open.
