Wreck On I-65 N Had Traffic Snarled In Cool Springs

Avoid I-65 North for a few hours if you're traveling to Nashville this evening.

FRANKLIN, TN — Traffic was jammed for an hour or so Tuesday afternoon on I-65 North following a crash south of Concord Road.

A friend of Patch who drove through this told us it appeared to be a two-car crash, and one car was leaking "a ton of fluid" and hadn't been towed yet.

The wreck was causing backups south of Moores Lane almost to Cool Springs Blvd. We recommended using Franklin Road or Wilson Pike to get north, at least until you hit Concord.

To give you a sense of what you missed, this is what Google Maps' traffic map looked like just before 4:30. Translation: not good.
