Manchester Police reported late Thursday morning that a tree had fallen onto Hwy 41 south. Apparently strong winds pushed the tree over. The large tree was located at the top of the ramp at exit 114 westbound. With the tree on the roadway and on top of the power line and traffic light, travel became a problem on Hwy 41 from the Quality Inn going all the way back to nearly Al White Motors and back toward Hillsboro in the opposite direction. Police were only able to allow one lane open in each direction until the tree was removed and traffic started to flow normally.
