OVERSIZED SEMI BLOCKS BUSY RICHMOND INTERSECTION
(Richmond, IN)--A busy downtown Richmond intersection was blocked for an extended period of time Tuesday. A semi carrying an oversize load tried and failed to make a left-hand turn from South A onto 9th Street. The semi’s cab was well onto the sideway next to the Leland, prompting concerns from Leland officials about the structural integrity of the sidewalk over the Leland’s basement. The incident is nothing new for the trucking company. A search of their history shows a violation rate more than twice the national average with 127 violations in the last two years. No one was injured in the incident.
