BLADEN COUNTY, NC (WECT) – There’s good news for some drivers in Bladen County – the Tar Heel Bridge has re-opened.
The bridge was closed for weeks after a truck carrying dead hogs got stuck on it and couldn’t be moved safely.
The situation left many drivers frustrated, because the detour took them 35 miles out of their way.
