#SLMPD officers are working with MODOT and the Streets Department to close eastbound I-70 at Tucker until further notice due to a large sinkhole under the interstate. Eastbound I-44 will also be closed and traffic will be redirected onto the Poplar Street Bridge. If you’re traveling westbound on the Poplar Street Bridge, you will not be able to exit at Walnut. Please use alternate routes. We will share additional updates as soon as possible. #STLtraffic
