Oversized load too tall on I-94

Jamestown(CSi)  Jamestown Police and North Dakota Highway Patrol were called to assist in an oversized semi. The semi would could not pass under the 17th street overpass, exit 257, due to height restrictions.

The trouble started around 4:30pm on Monday, with the oversized semi backing up the west bound lane til it could come up the entrance ramp off Highway 281 South.

Once up the ramp, police blocked traffic from 20th street SW, and closing traffic from 24th Street SW while the semi made several attempts to backed up.

The ordeal took 30 minutes and then traffic was back to normal.
