An oversized load got to spend a little extra time in Dublin last week as an incorrect route was taken near the construction on Patrick Street. The truck was so heavy he was unable to turn around on city streets and TxDOT had to bring in a crane to offload his cargo, allowing him to turn around, then reloading his cargo.
