HUBER HEIGHTS, Ohio -- A semi hits an overpass for the second time in less than a month.

It happened this time at the intersection of Chambersburg Road and Route 4 near Wright-Patt Air Force Base.

The Chambersburg overpass crossing Route 4 is closed this morning and will be for several days.

The load of a big rig failed to clear the bridge yesterday afternoon, slamming into one of the beams, making the bridge dangerous.

ODOT crews did shore up the overpass with jacks after the accident but more work is needed before traffic can cross the bridge.

It's expected to be closed for about 72 hours.

The previous such incident happened on I-75 at the Timber Lane overpass.
