ELIZABETHTOWN, KY 1 dead after US 31W Bypass crash in Elizabethtown on Friday, 29th September 2023
The driver of a commercial vehicle is dead after they ran into the truss holding up an overhead sign above the roadway.
This caused the sign to fall, blocking all lanes of the major roadway in Elizabethtown, Kentucky. It's now closed in both directions.
Chris Denhem, PIO for Elizabethtown Police, said the SRM Concrete mixer truck lost control in the northbound lanes of the US 31W Bypass around 8 a.m. The southbound vehicle hit the concrete support pillar for the sign, which caused it to fall into the southbound lanes.
