A traffic collision on Interstate 210 East in Pasadena, CA, caused significant disruptions to traffic early this morning. The incident, which involved three vehicles—a dark-colored sedan, a grey Toyota, and another grey sedan—occurred around 2:38 AM. The collision initially blocked multiple lanes, including the High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane, leading to delays for early morning commuters.
Emergency response units were dispatched promptly to manage the scene and facilitate traffic flow. A tow truck was requested shortly after the collision to assist with the vehicles involved. As emergency crews worked, all lanes were temporarily closed, resulting in a backup that affected traffic in the area.
By approximately 3:28 AM, all lanes were reported open, allowing traffic to resume normal flow. However, officials noted damage to the concrete wall near marker 28.6, which may pose a hazard for drivers.
Motorists traveling on Interstate 210 East should remain cautious and aware of potential lingering effects from the traffic incident. The swift response from emergency units helped clear the scene efficiently, minimizing the impact on morning traffic.
