A traffic collision occurred today at the intersection of Tejon Highway and Di Giorgio Road in Arvin, CA, involving one vehicle. The incident has prompted significant emergency response efforts, including coordination between the California Highway Patrol (CHP), Golden Empire Transit (GET), and Pacific Gas and Electric (PGE).
The vehicle remains at the scene, unable to be towed due to a leaning telephone pole that is obstructing its removal. PGE is on-site and has estimated a 45-minute wait for the pole to be repositioned, which is necessary before towing can occur. As a result, traffic flow in the area has been affected, leading to delays and congestion for motorists during the morning commute.
Emergency responders are actively managing the scene to ensure safety and minimize disruption. Drivers are advised to seek alternative routes to avoid potential backups. The CHP is working diligently to control the situation and provide updates as they become available.
As the situation develops, motorists are encouraged to stay informed about traffic conditions in the area. The removal of the vehicle and the reopening of lanes will be communicated once the necessary actions have been completed.
