A late model tractor-trailer pulling a tanker filled with fracking sand overturned Monday afternoon near Brighton. The driver was making an approach to westbound E-470 from US Highway 85 when he failed to negotiate the sharp curve. Brighton fire rescue and Platte Valley Ambulance Service responded to assist the truck driver who was not seriously injured. The ramp to E-470 will be closed for several hours as the loaded truck is removed. Police closed 136th Avenue from Brighton Road to US 85 until the truck was turned upright.
