LONG VIEW, N.C. — Work is underway Monday following an erosion that caused damage along the Interstate 40 exit ramp to Long View.

Construction workers say the erosion started a month ago and caused additional damage after Tropical Storm Debby.

Channel 9′s Dave Faherty learned that water runoff caused the damage and that there is no drainage pipe.

The exit ramp at mile marker 121 is still open as repairs are being done.
