RED BANK : AMAZON TRUCK CARRIER CRASHES AT RAILROAD OVERPASS

By BRIAN DONOHUE

Red Bank’s Front Street railroad overpass claimed another victim Thursday morning, this time a vehicle carrier hauling an Amazon delivery van. 

This crash occured shortly before 10:30 am.

The bridge is the site of regular-occurring crashes caused when drivers behind the wheel of large trucks fail to heed the warning signs of the bridge’s 10’11” clearance and hit the span.

A Facebook post by the Red Bank Fire Department said the motor vehicle carrier carrying the Amazon van struck the span. 

We will update this post if more information becomes available.
