Wreck blocking I-69 on-ramp

UPDATE
At 9:30 p.m. the ramp re-opened.

ORIGINAL POST
There is an oversized load that has overturned blocking the Ky. 91 ramp to Interstate 69 southbound at Princeton.

The truck was hauling a 110,000-pound section of a drilling rig. Three industrial-strength wreckers have been called to the site in an attempt to upright the load.

Estimated duration is three to four hours.

Detour for the ramp is via the other Princeton exit and looping back or via U.S. 62 to I-69 South at Eddyville.
