Northview Avenue bridge closed indefinitely following accident
Interstate 135 remains open while the Moccasin overpass awaits necessary repairs
The Northview Avenue bridge, also known as Moccasin, is closed indefinitely after an overturned semi-trailer damaged the structure during a crash on Interstate 135. Drivers who rely on the bridge will need to find an alternate route for the foreseeable future.
The accident occurred July 8 near mile marker 60. In an official city release, officials confirmed the bridge was closed to traffic to allow crews to conduct necessary repairs after the crash.
Local officials have not yet provided a specific timeline or estimated cost for the repairs, noting only that the closure will remain in place indefinitely until the structure is safe.
Despite the incident and the resulting closure of the overpass, traffic on I-135 has not been disrupted. The interstate reopened at 12:15 a.m. on July 9, and authorities confirmed it remains fully open to motorists while the bridge repairs are being organized.
