TxDOT: CR 143 bridge to 'remain closed several days' following 18-wheeler hitting it


AUSTIN (KXAN) — After an 18-wheeler hit a bridge on Interstate 35 Thursday, the Texas Department of Transportation said it “will remain closed for several days until repairs are made.”

The bridge is located at County Road 143, according to TxDOT.

The city of Georgetown said on social media that the 18-wheeler hit the bridge just north of 195 on northbound I-35.

Around 7 p.m., the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) reported that all northbound lanes were closed at I-35 at County Road 143. However, around 7:22 p.m., the agency said the northbound lanes were reopened.

No other details were available Thursday.
