It's ba-aa-ckk (sinkhole on I-80). Road closed.

OK, not entirely back. It's a new one, only 75' from the other one:

WHARTON, New Jersey (WABC) -- Eastbound lanes of Interstate 80 in Wharton, New Jersey, remain shut down as emergency crews work around the clock to repair a sinkhole.

The Department of Transportation reported that a sinkhole that opened up in December is located just 75 feet from this new one. The area where that sinkhole was repaired is stable.

Concerns about the hole were raised around 6:45 a.m. Monday when a depression in the center lane was spotted.

As workers were boring holes to investigate, they triggered a second sinkhole.
