GRANTS PASS, Ore. - All lanes of Interstate 5 north and south are closed between mileposts 48-55 (about 5 miles south of Grants Pass) for law enforcement activity, Oregon Dept. of Transportation said around 4 p.m. Sunday.

Both north and southbound lanes are closed and our reporter in the area says the freeway is at a standstill.

"This could be a lengthy closure," ODOT said. They also said to use alternate routes.

A detour is in place for both directions - Exit 55 (southbound) and Exit 45A (northbound) - onto Highway 99.
