TYLER, Texas — All three westbound lanes on the E Southeast Loop 323 at McMillan Drive are closed due to several low hanging tree branches, according to the Texas Department of Transportation.
According to crews on scene, an 18-wheeler struck a tree which blocked the road. Crews are now taking down more trees to prevent others from falling and are expected to be working until approximately 2:00 a.m.
Tyler police urges citizens to use alternate routes. Traffic is currently being diverted to Paluxy Drive.
