Rollover Crash Shuts Down Part Of Northbound I-5 For Seven Hours
On Monday around 4:40 a.m. a truck driver hauling 25 tons of hay from Junction City to Tacoma lost control on the bridge near the I-84 ramp. No citations have been issued at this time.
The truck driver was not seriously hurt in the crash.
The northbound lanes of I-5 over the Marquam Bridge were shut down for seven hours while crews cleaned up hay and removed the crashed truck. Around $5000 worth of hay were lost in the crash.
The Oregon Department of Transportation shared numerous photos of the overturned truck.
