All lanes of Nashville Highway have reopened after a lumber truck overturned in Maury County.

The crash happened around 3:40 a.m. Thursday in the northbound lanes between Highland Rim Drive and Honey Farm Way.

Lumber was scattered across the yards of several homes. The driver took out two mailboxes and left tire marks in the road before hitting a utility pole.

The crash knocked out power to residents in the area, but it was restored about three hours later.

It’s not clear if the driver of the semi truck was injured in the crash.

Mayor Megan Barry’s resignation in March following an affair with her head of security is a plot that might seem too outlandish for even a multiepisode arc of CMT’s Nashville. Then there was the failure of the Barry-touted transit referendum two months later (a defeat aided by heaps of dark money), followed by a 13-candidate election to fill Barry’s vacant seat. Transit’s failure didn’t stop a flock of electric scooters owned by a company named Bird from swarming the city — that is, before Bird ownership clashed with Metro and ultimately agreed to take the scooters off the streets.
