I-49 Ramp Re-opens After 18-Wheeler Overturns

The entrance ramp to I-49 at Odom Street has re-opened after crews worked to remove the debris from an overturned 18-wheeler.

The truck, loaded with concrete dirt, was returning from the Port of Alexandria when the driver flipped the rig while trying to enter the northbound lanes. Police say the driver was moving too quickly, and cited him for failure to maintain control and for having an unsecured load.

Thankfully, no one was injured.
