A traffic crash involving multiple vehicles has closed both eastbound lanes of I-44 east of Marshfield at Mile Marker 106. The duration of this incident is expected to last through the night.
All eastbound I-44 traffic is being diverted at Marshfield, at Mile Marker 100. Detoured traffic will be using Route 38 to Webster County, Route CC to Conway, then back onto I-44 at Mile Marker 113.
Interstate 44 closing could last up to 12 hours as emergency crews clean up the crash and MoDOT crews plow and treat I-44. Other MoDOT crews are plowing and treating the detour route.
