On Saturday, a traffic alert was issued by the Memphis Police Department (MPD) for North Second Street in Downtown Memphis. On Monday, MPD said the entire intersection at Second and Madison will be closed for an "unspecified amount of time" due to a large sinkhole.
Citizens are advised by MPD to use alternate routes.
The street was closed due to road work by MLGW and Public Works, according to MPD on Saturday. There was no timeframe set for reopening, they said.
