COBB COUNTY, Ga. — A Red Bull delivery truck could have used wings Wednesday afternoon to navigate Cobb County’s notorious covered bridge.

Instead, the truck hit a beam at the base of the bridge and became wedged under the roof of the historic Concord Bridge.

The accident shut the road down for hours. It has since reopened.

Cobb County officials said at the time, trucks were hitting the bridge at least once a month.
