Highway 75 in Huntsville is closed under SH 19. This occurred after an oversize load with a sixteen-foot-tall vessel that weighed 78,000 pounds hit the overpass and rolled over. Oversized loads require a permit from TXDOT. TXDOT, using their data, maps out the route for the load to go and avoids structures, etc. They were not successful in planning to slip the 16-foot vessel under the 15-foot overpass
MCPR was created in 2008 after Jamie left a newspaper that conflicted with her ethics. Initially, it was blog style website where Jamie wrote stories and posted them with photos. Scott provided video, and as the blog grew in popularity, businesses began to inquire about advertising. The blog soon transitioned to a news website, and then to a print newspaper, which was sold in over 100 stores, and through subscription for several years.
