  1. Moving truck runs red light and scrapes the 11foot8+8 bridge
    Jun 26, 2025 · original
    On June 21, a moving truck comes cruising down Gregson St. and trips the overheight sensor, runs the red light and strikes the bottom of the canopener bridge. This was crash #187 since April 2008.
  2. Reefer truck gets stuck under the 11foot8+8 bridge
    Aug 31, 2024 · original
    A local canopener fan pointed me to this crash, which happened a month ago. A reefer truck ended up with an expensive-looking roof modification after ignoring the red traffic light AND the warning sign at the canopener bridge. The truck was stuck under the bridge for almost an hour. This was crash # 185 (note that 185 and 184 are now out of chronological order).
  3. Clash of the giants at the 11foot8+8 bridge
    May 8, 2024 · original
    On May 6th, a recycling truck challenged the 11foot8 bridge to a sort-of jousting duel. In this clash of the steel giants the old canopener got a bit rattled but I don’t know that the truck escaped completely unscathed. This was crash #182 since 2008.
  4. Roof modification at the 11foot8+8 bridge
    May 1, 2024 · original
    Another truck triggers the warning lights at the bridge, but the traffic lights are slow to change due to the pedestrian lights. Will the driver see the warning sign? Or will the truck end up with a slight modification to the the roof? This was crash 181 since 2008. 0:11 / 0:50
  5. Boxtruck crash sprays debris at the 11foot8+8 bridge
    Jul 16, 2023 · original
    Only the second crash this year at the 11foot8 bridge, but on July 6 a box truck driver ignored the warning signals and hit the crash beam of the Canopener bridge. Pieces of the roof were scattered all over the road! This was crash # 178 since 2008.
  6. Speeding truck runs red light and hits the 11foot8+8 bridge
    Feb 25, 2023 · original
    After a veeery long dry spell, the canopener snagged some pieces off of a red-light running rental truck. The truck came down Gregson Street at a good clip, most likely faster than the 25MpH speed limit, ran the light by a solid 2 seconds and ended up leaving a couple of pounds of metal debris under the bridge. After a short break – presumably to assess the damage – the driver decided to continue, leaving the debris in the road for others to clean up. This was crash #177 since 2008.
  7. Another left turn crash at the 11foot8+8 bridge
    Jun 18, 2022 · original
    On Jun 14, a Penske truck turned left onto Gregson St, only to find the canopener bridge waiting to pounce. This was crash # 176 since 2008.
  8. Camper trailer loses equipment at the 11foot8+8 bridge
    Jun 18, 2022 · original
    The last 4 months were quiet at the canopener bridge – presumably due to construction and frequent road closures on Gregson St. right at the bridge and on the stretch south of the tracks. However yesterday, on April 26 – a camper trailer had some of its rooftop equipment removed at the canopener bridge. This was recorded as crash # 175 since April 2008.
  9. Truck turns left and hits the 11foot8+8 bridge
    Dec 15, 2021 · original
    On December 6, 2021 a box truck made a left onto Gregson St and made contact with the canopener bridge. Trucks turning from Peabody St onto Gregson should be able to see the low-clearance sign at the stop light, but if the driver is not aware of the truck’s clearance requirements, that information might not help. This is crash #174 since 2008.
  10. Semi truck loses stacks at the 11foot8+8 bridge
    Oct 29, 2021 · original
    On October 21, a semi truck damaged the faring and stacks when the driver pulled under the canopener bridge. When the driver then reflexively decided to just put it in reverse and back out, he REALLY messed up the fairing and lost one of the exhaust stacks. This was crash # 173 since 2008.
