When it fell on its side, police said, the semi also struck a fire hydrant and broke a water main, allowing water to flow under the roadway.
A viewer told News4Jax that the semi was carrying about 44,000 pounds of coffee, which had to be offloaded in order to flip the semi back up.
No injuries were reported. JEA was called to work on the broken water main.
Police expected the road to reopen about 7 p.m.
