Was one of the people that called this in. Massive fire and smoke. Completely engulfed the north Avenue bridge over the river. 911 was awful trying to get them to understand this.
Bruh if this bridge is closed for any amount of time I just straight up won’t leave my house ever again due to traffic
@gabii236 but it’ll take some time to confirm the bridge didn’t sustain damage and can handle vehicles again
someone go live
