Plymouth overpass on Southfield Freeway.

Crews have shut down both I-96 ramps leading onto the Southfield Freeway Monday afternoon.

Both eastbound and westbound ramps heading onto M-39 heading south were closed around 4:50 p.m. the Michigan Department of Transportation said. 

A water main break near Plymouth Road had flooded the nearby area. 

Video of the scene showed water pouring onto the freeway from the Plymouth Road overpass.
