Traffic is currently at a standstill on what is called Loop 151 on the Texas side of Texarkana on this Wednesday morning.

Texarkana Texas Police say a truck knocked down a power line that crosses the roadway also known as Jarvis Parkway. Traffic was completely shut down on both the north and southbound lanes and on the service road known as Bishop street for awhile. As of 11:15am police say one northbound and one southbound lane are open, but it will be a slow go. Expect Delays.

Authorities say Swepco has arrived. No word on how long this problem will exist, however it would be advised to avoid the area around the Loop and West 7th Street for the next while.
