TxDOT's North Tyler Maintenance Section responds to a fatality wreck on US 271 near Winona. The driver of the 18-wheeler was killed when his rig struck the sign bridge. The wreckage ended up supporting part of the damaged structure, making it necessary to cut the sign bridge completely away in order to remove the driver's body. TxDOT and rescue crews worked 15 hours straight to clear the wreck and re-open the highway.
