Road closures were in place for an extended period of time after an 18-wheeler hit a bridge just North of 195 going Northbound on IH-35 in Georgetown Thursday evening.

The crash occurred around 5:30 p.m., and all Northbound lanes were diverted to one lane (the frontage road) to exit 268 due to bridge damage being assessed by TxDOT.

Northbound lanes reopened around 7:20 p.m., and I-35 fully reopened around 8:45 p.m.

TxDOT stated that the CR 143 bridge will remain closed for several days until repairs are made. It is unknown at this time if there are any injuries as a result of the crash.
