A traffic collision on U.S. Highway 101 at Jolon Road in Bradley, CA, has caused significant traffic disruptions today. The incident, which occurred around noon, involved two vehicles, including one that rolled over and blocked both lanes of the highway. This blockage led to considerable delays and congestion as drivers were forced to navigate around the scene.
Emergency response teams, including multiple units from the California Highway Patrol, were quickly deployed to manage traffic and control the area. Initially, both lanes were obstructed, resulting in a backup for motorists. However, lane number two was reopened shortly after, allowing some traffic to resume normal flow. Lane number one remained closed for a longer duration, continuing to contribute to delays in the area.
By approximately 1:38 PM, all lanes were cleared, and traffic began to return to normal. The prompt response from emergency services helped alleviate some of the congestion during the busy afternoon commute. Motorists are advised to remain cautious and stay informed about traffic conditions, as the aftermath of the collision may still affect travel times.
This incident underscores the importance of safe driving practices and the potential for unexpected traffic incidents on major roadways.
