An oversized load hit a railroad bridge in Powhatan Point yesterday morning, dislodging a beam, and tying up traffic along State Route 7.
Police say the truck even hit a spring beam underneath the railroad bridge causing it to crack.
Railroad traffic had to be rerouted as well.
Police say it is a recurring theme — trucks hitting the yellow beams — even as the height clearance is posted on a sign.
The mayor says they may have to install flashing lights.
No injuries were reported. The Ohio State Highway Patrol and the Ohio Department of Transportation were also on scene.
