Wreck on 17 Bypass Blocking One Lane of Traffic

One lane is still closed at the intersection of Highway 106 and the 17 Bypass after a wreck this morning.

It happened mid-morning between a van and an 18-wheeler.

Both lanes of the 17 Bypass were shut down until about 11:30a ago when the southbound lane was re-opened.

However, the northbound lane remains closed as crews from the Georgia Dept of Transportation continue to clean up the accident scene.

Troopers from the Toccoa post of the Georgia State Patrol are investigating and WNEG News is working to find out more details on the accident and how it happened.

We will bring those details to you as they become available.
