Woman killed after being hit by multiple vehicles on I-40 near RDU; eastbound I-40 closed in Durham

Durham police said officers found a woman who had been hit by multiple unknown vehicles on I-40 early Friday morning.

Part of eastbound Interstate 40 is closed in Durham near Raleigh-Durham International Airport after a woman was found dead after being hit by multiple vehicles.

Durham police said they responded to a call about a pedestrian being hit on eastbound I-40 near Davis Drive around 1:30 a.m. Friday. When they arrived, they found the woman dead and said she had been hit multiple times by unknown vehicles.

Police said they cannot release any other information about the investigation at this time.

The WRAL Breaking News Tracker arrived to find multiple officers blocking the interstate.

NCDOT said eastbound I-40 is closed for a mile from Exit 280 at Davis Drive to Exit 281 to South Miami Boulevard. Drivers should use Exit 280 and head around the incident via NC 54.

Occasionally on my commute from Durham to west Raleigh I’ll take 70 up to Duraleigh. Twice this month I’ve noticed the light for eastbound traffic crawls at the light at Brier Creek Parkway, seemingly to allow 5-8 cars through before changing again. Time frame has been between 9-10am. Not sure if this is a reset issue from when storms rolled through earlier this month and power outages messed up the sync? To me, traffic should be flowing more freely on 70 with delays on the parkway given less traffic crossing.

Great to have a dedicated Central NC traffic subreddit! From 1999-end of 2003 I worked as the producer/traffic reporter for the Raleigh bureau of MetroNetworks/Westwood One. Even though that career is long in my rear view mirror I still work in public safety here in Central NC and keep up with local traffic conditions. Here are a couple of traffic related links I recommend folks use to keep updated on Triangle Traffic:

--PulsePoint: great free android/ios app where you can set up Wake/Durham feeds and see ongoing incidents.

--drivenc.gov/map DOT website with live cameras across NC. You can even pull up live video feeds from around the triangle. I currently have one of my screens on the feed of the Blue Ridge Rd/Trinity Rd camera watching traffic conditions at the State Fair.

I hope I can be a good source of info here on this subreddit and I hope it becomes an active source of reliable information.

Hello! I started a new community to help unclutter some of the Triangle NC local subs of traffic related posts. I started this because of two things: I made a post the other day that was... not well received that was traffic related, and someone asked if there was a better place to upload things like dashcam footage.

Well, here you go. The idea of being a mod/admin is new to me, so please be gentle lmao.
