Accident slows traffic near I-79/Route 68 interchange
JACKSON TWP - Traffic is reduced after a pair of accidents Tuesday morning at near the Interstate 79 and Route 68 intersection.
Emergency crews responded to an accident on Route 68 Tuesday morning after an excavator collided with the I-79 overpass at around 10 a.m.
Crews closed Route 68 for clean up. While they worked to clear that scene, an oversized load also struck the Interstate 79 overpass, becoming wedged underneath, according to Harmony Fire District officials.
Responders are encouraging motorists to find an alternate route and avoid the area if possible, according to a post on the Harmony Fire District Facebook page.
No further details were immediately available.
