LEAGUE CITY, TEXAS
League City police and fire departments, along with Webster,
responded to an accident involving a cement mixer truck on the southbound
feeder of the Gulf Freeway just north of FM 518 on Tuesday (Mar. 17).
After workers cleaned up the HAZMAT situation caused by the
truck's fuel tanks, a heavy-duty wrecker towed it, but did not get far.
The wrecker with the cement truck in tow made a U-turn to
proceed north on the Gulf Freeway main lanes.
While in tow, the cement truck again rolled over onto the
Gulf Freeway, which shut down the lanes until another heavy-duty wrecker could
arrive.
The second accident caused more of a headache because it
closed the main lanes.
The second accident occurred in Webster near the 21000 block
of the Gulf Freeway.
Webster police, assisted by League City, were able to open
one lane of the freeway, occasionally, but most traffic was diverted to NASA
Parkway.
It is unknown at this time what caused either accident.
