Emergency workers responded to a collision between a semi trailer truck and a Tulsa Transit Lift bus on eastbound Interstate 44 at Delaware in Tulsa.

The wreck took place at about 10:30 a.m. Monday.

The Oklahoma Highway Patrol says the 18-wheeler was apparently changing lanes, forcing the Tulsa Transit bus into the center retaining wall.

EMSA has transported a 69-year-old female passenger to a Tulsa hospital in serious condition.  A 49-year-old man also on the bus was treated at the scene by EMSA paramedics, but declined transport to the hospital.
