A traffic collision on State Route 87 South near the Almaden Expressway South off-ramp in San Jose, CA, has caused significant disruptions to traffic this morning. The incident, which occurred around 6:25 AM, involved three vehicles: a blue Chevy Colorado, a grey Scion, and a grey Honda. The collision resulted in the blockage of Lane 1, leading to delays for motorists during the busy morning commute.
Emergency response teams, including the California Highway Patrol, were quickly dispatched to the scene to manage the situation. One of the vehicles was reported as non-movable, requiring towing services to clear the roadway. As a result, traffic was congested, with vehicles needing to navigate around the obstruction.
By 6:57 AM, the CHP reported that traffic was beginning to open up, although Lane 4 remained blocked. Towing operations were underway to remove the vehicles involved, particularly the grey Scion, which sustained significant damage.
Motorists are advised to expect residual delays as the situation is resolved and traffic flow is restored. The California Highway Patrol continues to manage the scene to ensure safety and efficiency while clearing the roadway.
