Route 33 in Howell is fully reopened after a fallen tree blocked part of the roadway on Wednesday morning.
Police say the large tree came down on wires and obstructed half the road, prompting officers to guide traffic around it using the shoulder.
The road was cleared and reopened around 8:30 a.m.
There is no word yet on what caused the tree to fall, though the weather overnight was relatively calm.
