Last night at approximately 8 p.m., a semi-flatbead hauling a large piece of equipment caught the traffic signal at Williams and Taylor Street as the driver turned south onto Taylor Street. City crews were on scene almost immediately.
Brian Byrd, Public Works Director said that the annual City Council Carolling event was underway with Mayor, Council, and department heads all on the ceremonial fire truck going through local neighborhoods as they approached the crash.
“Mayor Tedford asked who was taking this one,” laughed Byrd.
This morning at 5 a.m. the light at the intersection is flashing red and motorists should approach with caution or avoid the area. City crews will be working to restore the intersection as soon as possible.
