George Gizzi, 56, of Colonie, was traveling in the right most southbound lane early Wednesday morning. The boom lift on the trailer of the truck had raised, exceeding the high limit for the Sitterly overpass and struck the bridge.
The impact knocked the boom lift from the trailer and it came to rest across all three lanes, state police said.
The impact also severely damaged the bridge supports, including at least three large I beams. One sustained a large gash. It bent at least two others.
