Clarksville, TN – Drivers in Montgomery County are experiencing delays this morning as deputies report two separate incidents along Highway 12 impacting the morning commute.
According to the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office, Hwy 12 at Billy Reinhardt Road is reduced to one lane after a stalled semi-tractor trailer became disabled in the roadway. Crews are on scene directing traffic through the area, and motorists should expect slower movement, particularly during peak travel hours.
Deputies also reported a second incident on Hwy 12 near Shady Grove Road, where a traffic crash prompted authorities to divert vehicles at Shady Grove Road. No details have been released regarding injuries or how many vehicles were involved, and the sheriff’s office has not yet provided an estimated time for full reopening.
Both delays sit along a key commuter corridor connecting parts of Montgomery County to Clarksville and surrounding communities, increasing the likelihood of congestion through mid-morning. Drivers using Hwy 12 are encouraged to seek alternate routes until the roadway is cleared.
Authorities will release updates as recovery crews work to remove the stalled semi and complete the crash investigation.
Residents traveling through the area this morning are asked to use caution, plan extra time, and follow detour signs.
