A traffic collision on US Highway 101 North near South Airport Boulevard in South San Francisco, CA, caused significant traffic delays this morning. The incident involved two vehicles, including a heavy-duty big rig, which resulted in the closure of lanes 2, 3, and 4 due to fuel spillage on the roadway.

Emergency response teams were quickly deployed to manage the scene and ensure safety. As the morning commute progressed, motorists experienced backups and congestion as traffic management efforts were initiated. A tow truck was called to assist with the heavy-duty vehicle involved in the collision, while crews worked to contain and clean up the fuel spill, which was substantial but did not reach the storm drain.
