A part of a Woodstock road has been shutdown due to large sinkhole that appears to be taking over a lane traffic.

Arnold Mill Road eastbound, between River Laurel Way and Grimes Road, will be closed as construction crews work to patch up the hole.

Officials say residents and guests to a nearby subdivision will still be able to gain access.
