A semi-tractor-trailer struck the 140th Avenue bridge over the U.S.-131 expressway between Wayland and Dorr Wednesday around 7:10 a.m.

The right lane of northbound lanes for the freeway were closed after the crash in Leighton Township. Officials from the Michigan Department of Transportation had the135th Avenue exit (No. 64) and MDOT workers were on the scene waiting for inspectors to look at the bridge.

One observer said, “Concrete is all over the highway and they are blocking off the overpass to traffic until the stability of the overpass is checked out.”
