A traffic collision on the eastbound lanes of State Route 60 (SR-60) in Montebello, CA, caused significant traffic disruptions during the morning commute today. The incident, involving three vehicles—a gray Ford Fusion, a silver Honda CRV, and one additional vehicle of unknown description—was reported at approximately 8:31 AM.
The collision resulted in the blockage of two lanes, leading to traffic delays and congestion for motorists traveling through the area. Emergency response teams quickly arrived to manage the scene, with one vehicle requiring towing due to damage, while another was repositioned by first responders to facilitate traffic flow.
By 8:56 AM, the roadway was reported clear, but the initial blockage caused a backup that affected the flow of traffic on SR-60. Motorists are advised to remain cautious and expect potential delays as the aftermath of the traffic incident continues to impact the area.
Authorities recommend that drivers consider alternative routes to avoid congestion. The California Highway Patrol and local emergency services are actively monitoring the situation to ensure safe passage for all vehicles on the road.
