A pedestrian bridge which spanned over Southfield Freeway collapsed Friday morning, blocking lanes throughout the day.

He has been identified as 54-year-old Stanford Michael Doll, of Almont, Mich. The entire Southfield Freeway was closed from I-96 to Joy Road, causing miles of traffic backup. The northbound and southbound sides of the freeway have reopened. Source : Pedestrian bridge falls onto Southfield Freeway after hit by truck; driver killed
