A dump truck struck a pedestrian bridge on Waterbury Avenue in the Bronx, causing it to collapse onto the southbound side of the Bruckner Expressway.

Crews are currently trying to fix the problem, but until then traffic is moving very slow. Motorists are advised to seek alternative routes.

The accident, which happened at 2:15 a.m. Friday, involved a dump truck heading southbound. The back half of the truck was in a 45-degree upright position as it headed to the foot bridge.

The driver of the dump truck was taken to Jacobi Medical Center, where he is said to be doing fine. His injuries are not life threatening.
