Delays Expected With Blue Bridge Closure Thursday

Fortunately, no injuries were reported. But the Blue Bridge southbound was completely blocked Tuesday morning around 5am

Southbound traffic was completely halted for about an hour Thursday morning when roughly a dozen vehicles were involved in bumper-to-bumper collisions. A red, Tri-Cities Animal Shelter & Control Services officer vehicle was smashed between a mini-van and a cement truck.

Crews with the Department of Transportation reopened the southbound lanes of US 395 over the Blue Bridge at about 6:30 a.m this morning, one day ahead of schedule.  The project leader says they were better prepared for the southbound work after running into problems with the expansion joints on the northbound lanes last week...
