A traffic collision on State Route 1 North at the State Route 129 off-ramp in Watsonville, CA, has caused notable traffic disruptions today. The incident involved two vehicles: a not driveable vehicle and an Audi sedan.

Emergency response teams quickly arrived at the scene, initiating vehicle recovery operations that led to temporary lane closures on the northbound off-ramp of State Route 129. These closures resulted in delays and congestion for motorists during the early morning hours, particularly affecting the morning commute.

A tow truck was dispatched to assist with the recovery of the not driveable vehicle, while the Audi's status remains unspecified. The recovery efforts necessitated the temporary closure of the off-ramp, impacting traffic flow in the area.

By approximately 7:35 AM, the roadway was reopened, allowing traffic to resume normal flow. Motorists were redirected to the Chevron station off State Route 129, alleviating some of the congestion caused by the earlier incident.

Drivers in the vicinity are advised to remain cautious and stay informed about potential traffic incidents to avoid delays.
