A flatbed carrying two large round tanks scraped the bottom of the bridge yesterday (05/01).
I can't remember if it was the Wilmeth or Bloomdale overpass.

Shredded a lot of concrete off but made it through.
No news/video/information to be found.
Anybody know anything about it?

There’s probably a trail of parts that the semi left behind on its way to the nearest truck stop or rest area.

I looked for debris this morning but saw none.

Really bridge debris or just parts from the load flying?

It must have been Bloomdale since Wilmeth crossing is a bridge.
It's marked 16'6" so should have been normal.  As are many underpasses north of there, so if the measurements are right then they must have just got on.
Were they in the rightmost lane?

Yep, it was Bloomdale.
There was a big cloud of concrete dust and chunks.

He was in the far right lane.
Probably would have been OK in the center/left lanes.
