Oversized Load May Slow Traffic Sunday Morning

City officials expect the truck to reach Twinsburg around 7 a.m.

Things may be a little slow-going on the roadways on Sunday morning.

Building Commissioner Russ Rodic said Hal Eorsen Oiler and Engineering Company contacted the city to tell them a truck hauling an oversized load would be coming through Twinsburg around 7 a.m.

The truck is carrying a 175,000-pound piece of equipment from Garfield Heights to Marathon Petroleum Company in Canton.

It will be going 8 MPH on Ravenna Road from Richmond Road to Aurora Road. Rodic said it should be out of Twinsburg by 8:30 a.m.

What the cargo is specifically is unknown and calls to a representative at Marathon have not been returned.
