The Post Standard, with information from the Onondaga County Sheriff’s Office, says that a state DOT contractor vehicle struck the Onondaga Lake Parkway Monday.

The Sheriff's Office says that while the DOT vehicle was going under 10 MPH when it collided with the railroad bridge, it still ended up getting stuck under it leading to a rather embarrassing situation.
