I just want to confirm we are on the ramp to get on the I-5 northbound from Morrison Bridge Eastbound.
00:05
Is that where you understand it to me?
00:06
Okay firm. There are no other updates.
00:08
It doesn't like ODOT put out flares for them.
00:11
They had a tow coming, but that tow had been quite a while.
00:16
Okay, copy, we'll circle back and try maybe I-5 northbound from the westbound bridge, but there's nothing northbound from eastbound.
00:25
Copy, and it does look like AAA called, and according to them, possibly Northbound I-5 north of Morrison.
00:37
So that might be the other location.
00:39
Yeah, I-5-Muritone is pretty congested, so maybe it's just a couple ways.
00:42
We'll let you know.
00:44
Okay, thank you. 6-336 from Engine 1.
00:46
We're about to commit to the Morrison, to I-5 North Town rather.
00:51
Do you want us to commit there or go somewhere else?
