I-65 Northbound Partially Open After Deadly Crash
May 24, 2014
Northbound I-65 is now partially open following a fiery crash between two semis that claimed one life Thursday. ALDOT says one restricted width northbound lane was opened Saturday morning.
A 2007 Freightliner was stopped for another traffic crash on the W.K. Wilson Jr. Bridge (commonly called the “Dolly Parton Bridge”) when it was rear-ended by an second truck. The driver of the second truck was killed in the crash, while the first driver escaped without injury. No identity has been released on the deceased.
Heavy traffic delays are expected due to holiday weekend traffic.
