(EWBANKS)—A semi stuck under the railroad viaduct on Ellington Road blocked traffic in that area late Monday afternoon. Adams County Sheriff’s deputies say 40 year old Timothy Swingle of Burlington Iowa misread the clearance sign and tried to drive his semi under the railroad bridge. The semi trailer sustained extensive damage and had to be unloaded prior to removal. Burlington Northern Santa Fe rail traffic was held up for about an hour for a bridge inspection. Ellington Road was closed in the area for several hours.
