GANDY BRIDGE UPDATE: Bayflite was called to crash on WB Gandy Bridge. That requires closure of all WB lanes. WB jammed back to Tampa side. Avoid it! (If you’re not stuck already.) pic.twitter.com/lsYU0dGqqv— Meredyth Censullo (@WFLAmeredyth) May 9, 2018
The crash was cleared and traffic was back to normal around 10 a.m.
