Sinkholes cause road closures in Polk County.

A 75-foot sinkhole has formed on private property in Polk County, Florida, prompting authorities to close off nearby roads and notify homeowners of potential evacuations. The sinkhole is not currently threatening roadways, but officials have barricaded the area due to the risk of collapse from nearby traffic vibrations. Workers with the private developer for the property are currently stabilizing the sinkhole, and authorities will step in if it grows further and starts threatening roadways.
