A traffic incident occurred today on northbound Interstate 710 at Atlantic Boulevard in Los Angeles, CA, involving two vehicles: a big rig tractor without a trailer and a red vehicle. The collision has resulted in the blockage of at least two lanes, specifically the third and fourth lanes, significantly impacting traffic flow in the area.
Emergency traffic management units quickly arrived at the scene to control the situation and direct traffic. As a result of the incident, the off-ramp at Atlantic Boulevard has also been closed, further complicating travel for motorists.
