A traffic collision on Interstate 680 (I-680) in Sunol, CA, has resulted in significant traffic delays today. The incident involved one vehicle, a red GMC 360, which went off the road and ended up approximately ten feet down a dirt embankment. Emergency traffic management resources were dispatched to the scene to address the situation and manage the traffic impact.
As a result of the collision, lane closures were implemented on the northbound side of I-680, specifically from Alcosta Boulevard to Mission Boulevard. This has led to noticeable congestion and backups for motorists traveling through the area. Multiple units responded to ensure the safe management of traffic flow and assist with the towing of the vehicle.
The collision was reported around 8:18 PM, prompting emergency responders to work diligently to clear the roadway and restore normal traffic conditions. A tow truck was called to the scene to remove the vehicle from the embankment, and crews are actively working to resolve the situation as quickly as possible.
Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes to avoid delays and allow extra time for their journeys. The California Highway Patrol is monitoring the situation and managing traffic until the roadway is fully cleared.
