Oregon State Police (OSP) and ODOT are on scene of a non-injury overturned semi-trailer crash on the north side of the Highway 101 Astoria-Megler Bridge about a mile south of the Oregon/Washington border. A tow is on scene to upright the overturned trailer.
According to Trooper Dave Herman, on February 22, 2013 at approximately 1:08 p.m., a commercial truck pulling two trailers was traveling southbound on Highway 101 near milepost 1 when the rear unloaded trailer overturned onto the northbound lane of the highway. Wind is being reported as a contributing factor.
Both lanes of the highway were blocked until about 2:45 p.m. when the trailer was uprighted and the vehicles removed.
