SEMI-TRUCK AND TRAILER ROLLS BLOCKING FREEWAY TRAFFIC

May 20, 2026 9:20 a.m.  

A semi-truck and trailer rolled on Tuesday night, blocking the northbound lanes of Interstate Five about a mile south of the Clarks Branch Road Round Prairie exit.

An Oregon State Police report said the accident happened at approximately 10:15 p.m. Approximately 40 feet of guard rail was damaged as a result of the crash, which brought traffic to a halt for a time. Tow vehicles were on the scene to remove the contents of the trailer, so it could be towed away.

The driver, a California man, was not injured.
