Default Traffic Update- 5th ave SW downtown
Just heard from a co-worker that a crane smoked a +15 bridge on 5th ave somewhere around 4th st SW.

From my window I can see the parking lot that is now 5th ave SW.

A crane on the back of a truck smashed into a +15 on 5th ave and 2nd St. SW. The road is closed so if you are heading that way find another way out of downtown.

Ugh, thanks for the heads up man. Guess I should leave now before things get mental down here.

I drove by there earlier, I'd suggest that if you go east to leave downtown, don't even try. Go North or South and figure it out outside of DT.

Hmmmm.

Looking out my window at 5th ave right between 6&7 street, there isn't a single car on the street now.

Oh, there goes one now- full speed.

And then 4 more.

Looks like it's flowing. Maybe everybody knows to avoid it now? I still wouldn't risk it if possible.

This is what? the fourth bridge that has been hit in three months?
