HARRISON, NY — Northbound lanes on I-684 were closed at the start of the Memorial Day weekend because of a bus fire, according to the New York State Department of Transportation. Update: As of 7:30 p.m., only the right shoulder remained blocked. Shortly after 5 p.m., reports of a bus smoking on I-684 northbound, south of exit 2 (NY 120 Westchester County Airport), in the area of Lake Street, led to the right and center lanes to be blocked so that authorities can investigate, according to NYSDOT officials. The two travel lanes on the heavily traveled interstate highway remained closed for a few hours and traffic was reportedly backed up to I-287. Passengers from the bus could be seen huddling on the side of the road in earlier NYSDOT traffic cam video.
