I-10 back open after 18-wheeler hits Houston Avenue bridge

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Traffic is getting through again on I-10 inbound after an 18-wheeler clipped the Houston Avenue bridge over the freeway.

This happened just after 10 a.m.

SkeEye was over the area Friday morning where the big rig's trailer was blocking three lanes heading toward downtown.

The incident has since cleared.

I-10 is back open after a big rig hit the Houston Avenue bridge, backing up traffic.

Houston Ave bridge has been hit multiple times. In fact, TxDOT crews plan to close the Katy Freeway from Shepherd to I-45 inbound this weekend to repair the bridge from a previous hit.

At last check, they will move forward with the repairs as scheduled.
