    rolled thru at noon, west bound.
    At the 125mm is construction of a new bridge, both east/ west. Traffic on my side was backed up to the 127, or at least starting to.
    East bound traffic had started to back up, just past the get on ramp at the 122.

    A semi hauling steel apparently couldn't stop and hit a grain truck causing a train reaction. The driver of the steel truck is the one that died, they updated the story to show a pix of the crash.

    I was there, what a mess. Traffic was backed up for miles. It took me about 6 hours to get through and they were still doing cleanup at midnight(I was rolling west bound then). I think there was a 4 wheeler DOA too.
