A significant traffic collision occurred today on the eastbound lanes of Interstate 80 (I-80) near the Eureka Road off-ramp in Roseville, CA, causing major disruptions during the morning commute. The incident involved three vehicles: a red Acura, a white vehicle of unknown make and model, and a blue Ford. At least two of the vehicles were rendered non-drivable, requiring tow trucks for removal.
The collision resulted in the blockage of the off-ramp and surrounding areas due to fallen guardrails and debris, leading to considerable traffic delays and lane closures. Emergency services responded quickly, deploying several units to manage traffic control and ensure safe containment of the scene. The off-ramp is expected to remain closed for an extended period, with estimates suggesting it could take one to two hours for clearance operations to be completed.
As a result of this traffic incident, motorists are advised to seek alternative routes to avoid congestion and backups in the area. The California Highway Patrol is actively working to restore normal traffic flow as efficiently as possible. Drivers are encouraged to stay updated on road conditions and plan accordingly to minimize delays.
