FORT HOOD, Texas -- Fort Hood's Directorate of Emergency Services has closed ACP 3 (Clear Creek Gate) for outbound traffic because of an early afternoon traffic accident of an 18-wheeler transporting construction material, which damaged the Clear Creek Road overpass of U.S. Highway 190. Inbound traffic is still possible. It's undetermined at this time when ACP 3 outbound traffic lanes will reopen.

As a result of the accident, TxDot has temporarily closed the Clear Creek bridge and eastbound U.S. 190. Clean up is underway and bridge engineers are enroute to assess the bridge damage.

Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes, if possible.
