A fallen utility pole has forced authorities to shut down a portion of Smith Bridge Road, blocking traffic in both directions.

The road closure spans the area between Brandywine Creek Road and Montchanin Road while crews work to address the downed pole.

Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes while the situation is being resolved. No timeline has been provided for when the roadway will reopen to traffic.
