The North Carolina Department of Transportation reports that all four lanes on the bridge are closed in both directions due to the damage. One lane on I-73/74 is closed currently.

There is no word as to what caused the crash or the status of anyone involved at this time.

Just a man trying to eliminate the bias in mainstream media, and make relevant news more accessible to people than it ever has been. Don't feel obligated, but if you want to throw me a bone or two, I won't object.
