A traffic incident occurred today on State Route 17 North near the Hamilton Avenue off-ramp in Campbell, CA, impacting traffic flow during the morning commute. The incident involved one vehicle, a 2013 Ford Focus, which sustained damage that may have rendered it undrivable.
Emergency services responded quickly to manage the situation. A construction crew assisted in moving debris that had fallen from a cargo truck, which initially caused the damage to the Ford Focus. The debris was relocated to the right-hand side of the roadway to help clear the scene and improve traffic flow.
While specific lane closures were not reported, the presence of emergency response teams and the damaged vehicle likely contributed to some traffic delays in the area. Motorists traveling through this section of State Route 17 may have experienced minor backups as crews worked to ensure safety and facilitate the passage of vehicles.
The driver of the Ford Focus made arrangements for a tow truck to recover the vehicle independently. Traffic management efforts were in place to minimize disruption and assist in the safe movement of traffic during the incident.
Drivers are advised to remain cautious in the area and expect potential delays as the aftermath of the traffic incident is addressed.
