Interstate 89 177 stories
Interstate 89 runs about 130 miles across northwestern Vermont, from the I-91 junction at White River Junction through Montpelier and Burlington to the Canadian border at Highgate Springs.
VT Scout tracks crashes, closures, and traffic incidents on every major Vermont roadway — from the interstates (I-89, I-91) and the U.S. routes (US 7, US 2, US 4) to the state highways that connect Vermont's towns. Each route below has its own coverage page: the latest reported incidents, the towns it passes through, and a route overview.
For real-time roadwork advisories, weather closures, and live incident data, Vermont 511 (newengland511.org) is the Agency of Transportation's official source. VT Scout aggregates the reporting around those events — what happened, where, and who it affected.
