A tractor-trailer attempting to exit Interstate 84 westbound near State Route 52 found itself stuck Sunday, causing significant traffic disruptions.
The overpass is currently under construction, and the driver, unable to proceed, brought eastbound and westbound traffic to a standstill. Town of Newburgh Police and New York State Police responded to the scene, advising the driver that two signs on the ramp prohibit tractor-trailers from making left turns.
A heavy-duty wrecker was called to remove the vehicle, while traffic was rerouted on both directions of I-84 during the incident. The Town of Newburgh Police handled the accident report, and the New York State Department of Transportation was notified about damage to a guardrail caused by the truck.
No injuries were reported, and normal traffic flow resumed after the vehicle was cleared.
