MDOT said the stretch of I-75 was so badly damaged by the tanker fire that it might not be fixed until August.
The northbound lane is expected to reopen Wednesday afternoon or evening.
Crews worked Wednesday morning to remove damaged concrete and resurfacing the freeway. The median was also replaced due to the damage caused by the heat.
