Go ahead. I'm just getting the turn around west or eastbound.

They're going to have to try to back that super load up to make this exit.

We're going to see who else we can find for traffic assistance as well.

The MoDOT emergency response trucks are out there coming from MO-249 and I-44.
01:15
10-4. We're probably going to have to, I don't know if I need to do it, we're probably going to have to have somebody go down to 59 and block the ramp onto eastbound 44.
01:26
I can take care of that if the deputies want to stay there and if 1352 wants to get ready to come to the entrance to the ramp.
01:35
So they get expected.

Well, they believe they've changed their mind.
04:09
The driver doesn't feel confident backing this load up.
