They really need to look at the IA 13 / US 30 interchange

Another accident on this interchange;

CEDAR RAPIDS — Emergency crews took a semi driver to the hospital after his truck tipped over into the ditch Tuesday.

It happened about 9 a.m. on the ramp from Highway 30 east bound to Highway 13 north bound.

According to a Linn County Sheriff’s Office news release. 61-year-old Douglas Andrews of Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin suffered non-life threatening injuries.

Investigators said Andrews drove too close the shoulder on the curved ramp and the cargo trailer with a load of flour toppled into the ditch.

Not the first accident at that interchange. I knew a guy who died at that interchange back in 2013.
