(WSVN) &#8212; All northbound lanes of Interstate 75 have reopened near the Sawgrass Expressway in Weston, after a construction mishap prompted officials to shut down the roadway, backing up traffic for miles during rush hour, Monday.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Florida Highway Patrol, some machinery being used on a bridge under construction came off its track, at around 4 p.m. The machine then knocked down several pieces of wood that had been erected as part of a temporary guardrail, causing pieces of it to fall onto the lanes below, just after the split where I-75 curves west to Naples.<\/p>\n<p>7Skyforce HD showed part of the guardrail dangling over the roadway. Troopers and Road Rangers shut down all northbound lanes and began to divert traffic onto Interstate 595.<\/p>\n<p>At around 5 p.m., northbound traffic was backed up all the way south to Griffin Road.<\/p>\n<p>Crews brought out a special crane to remove the machine from the ramp and secure the wood. It took about four hours to remove the machinery and reopen the roadway.<\/p>\n<p>No injuries were reported. The bridge is intact and nothing collapsed, but the support pieces that fell halted construction and damaged one pickup truck.<\/p>\n<p>The bridge under construction will link I-75&#8217;s express lanes to those of I-595.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The northbound lanes at I-75 at the Sawgrass Expressway ramp will remain closed for several hours following a construction incident on Monday afternoon.
