Flooding causes road closure in Harrison County

Check out this video sent in by Harrison County Fire Chief Pat Sullivan.

You can see water completely flooding over the road, causing the road to close down.

A washout also formed on the side of the road. Crews had to come out and fill it in before the road could be reopened. “A couple areas that the road started to collapse and have issues with. The road department brought crews out and did temporary emergency repairs in these areas to shore up the road and take care of those areas. Road department responded with equipment and manpower to areas where they had washouts. We’re able to secure those areas temporarily, get those areas safe for traffic in the area and to keep the road from collapsing any further.”
