Morning collision causes bridge damage in Oak Ridge

The Edgemoor Bridge in Oak Ridge, TN, has been reopened after sustaining damage from a crash early on Sunday morning. The City of Oak Ridge had closed the bridge on Edgemoor Road near Melton Hill Lake following the incident involving a Ford F-250 losing control and hitting the railing. Fortunately, no injuries were reported from this crash or the subsequent one involving another vehicle hitting the truck. Engineers from the Tennessee Department of Transportation are now assessing the bridge's condition and evaluating the repair timeline after the wintry weather in East Tennessee. Drivers should remain cautious of possible icy spots on the roads, particularly on bridges.
