WHITE STONE—A head-on collision on the Robert O. Norris Jr. Memorial Bridge in the early morning hours of Monday, October 9, resulted in a traffic jam that blocked traffic all the way to White Stone through peak morning travel times.
According to Lancaster County Sheriff Patrick McCranie, the accident occurred at 4:18 a.m. on the White Stone side of the bridge, outside the center span construction zone. According to the sheriff, the bridge was closed from approximately 5:15 to 7 a.m.
