Houston TranStar officials are notifying the public that a heavy truck hauling an oversized load is blocking the northbound lanes of FM 1098 at FM 1488 in Waller County, east of Hempstead.

The trailer's dolly broke at the intersection of FM 1098 and FM 1488. A crane has been dispatched to remove the truck's load and replace the dolly; however, the incident may last until the early morning hours of Tuesday, September 18.
