Earlier post
As BRL was the first to report in our Twitter feed early Saturday, an overturned milk truck has shutdown the intersection of Route 151 & 250 while crews continued to clean up the mess. As of 10:35 AM the roadway was still blocked but one lane of Route 250 was open. VDOT believes Route 250 will open soon, but Route 151 may be closed several hours due to cleanup.
