Ship Channel Bridge reopens after car rear-ends 18-wheeler
HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- The Ship Channel Bridge was a mess this morning after a car rear-ended an 18-wheeler, triggering a large backup.
All northbound lanes of IH-610 East Loop at the Ship Channel were shut down, but reopened at about 5:40 a.m.
Houston TranStar cameras showed vehicles at a standstill and a sea of tail lights.
It's unknown if there were any injuries.
Traffic is moving again but if you still want to avoid the route, you can use US-90 or the Washburn Tunnel.
