EAST WENATCHEE, Wash. – An overturned semi-truck carrying cherries has shut down Grant Road in both directions Monday near Pangborn Memorial Airport, forcing officials to establish detour routes while crews work to clear the scene.
According to Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, the closure affects Grant Road between Union Avenue and the roundabout at Urban Industrial Way/Airport Way in East Wenatchee. Tow trucks are en route to clear the overturned vehicle.
Officials estimate the road will remain closed for approximately two hours.
