JAMESTOWN, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – An over-sized semi load caused a bit of a traffic backup this morning in Jamestown.

The Jamestown Police Department used local media to warn motorists of the backup on Highway 281 at the I-94 overpass Thursday morning. Major Justin Blinsky reported that the call came in at around 8:30 AM after the semi had become stuck.

Major Blinsky says traffic then became backed up while they attempted to get the semi unstuck and removed from the area.

Traffic began moving again roughly 30 minutes following the incident.
