The roadway was closed in both directions between Exit 70 and the Massachusetts line for at least an hour and has since reopened.

Troopers are still responding to accidents all over the state. I84 East and West from the Mass. line to Ex. 70 is shutdown for multiple TT crashes. If you can, stay home. If you have to go out, drive extra careful, slow down and ditch all distractions. #CTtraffic
